I agree...go for it. And I dont necessarily buy the idea that qualification is easier. For a lot of folks, training for the past 18 months has been in the tank. A successful qualifying effort might hurt as much, or more, as qualifying in a "normal" year.
My mother won her AG group at Australian time trials.
I ask:
"Out of how many?"
Her:
"1, it's bloody hard to race bikes as a woman at 75..."
Well....
Maybe!!!
But sorry-
30th out of 150 is probably NOT as hard as 5th out of 250.( Or whatever the numbers would have been in previous years).
I won my AG at Tulsa this year by 30 minutes.
I am not any better now than other years when I trained as hard and finished much lower.
At least not 30 minutes better!!
