Where do you prefer to ride position-wise with your pack?

Upfront, middle, in back?

I used to automatically take the back spot; when I started out and knew I was the slowest, I didn't want to hold anyone up, and I wanted to be able to watch other rider's lines. By over time, I've kinda migrated to mid pack. I'm not fadt, but I'm no longer the slowest.

Me too! The difference is huge for me and I now prefer to follow someone I know well. On my own I hardly push it and am slow....put me behind someone and I'm right with them. It's a confidence thing for me.

I'm not at the back because I'm the slowest.
