Composure isn't about using every gap. Sometimes it shows precisely in staying behind when it doesn't feel one hundred per cent right. The few seconds gained aren't worth the stress and the risk.

- Without pressure: Don't let queues or fellow riders push you. Your decision is what counts.
- Patience as a strength: The next good opportunity almost always comes.
