What's the protocall for Holding Your Line in a crit race? I just started racing last year and only did one crit race. I understand all about holding your line and had no complaints against me in any race or group ride. My 1st crit, I did all I could to "Hold my Line", but it seemed to me this rule was thrown out in the crit race (cat 4/5). I would go into a corner on the inside of the group (the group was wide, but I was on the insde of the group, maybe 2-3 racers wide) and it was all I could do to avoid everyone that was wide and into the corner would cut right into the inside corner and exit wide. Leaving no room for me on the inside who was trying to hold my line on the inside thru the corner. This did not happen on just one turn, but all of them. I ended up learning my lesson very quickly and made sure I was on the outside of each turn or in the middle.
What is the correct or best way to take a corner in a crit..pretty much asking for advise here.
