I ask pose this thought from the other thread.....
I think someone who is fast on the road - will be fast on the track....but someone who is fast on the track, won't necessarily be fast on the road.
Why do I say this....well road riding requires more 'adaptation' to the conditions and more attention as there is the unknown factor. Whereas riding on the track - you know there is no oncoming traffic, the track will be flat with no pot holes etc - you only need to concentrate on fewer variables
A road rider needs to be able to not only ride fast but quickly alter line/speed/braking to suit completely variable and often unknown conditions
Your thoughts?
