Establishinga gap is the hardest part of a breakaway, both physically and mentally. Although this seems obvious, the increase in power and mental focus necessary to put time and space between you and the rest of the field is substantial enough to pose a real risk to your chances of running out of energy too early in the race.
The best way to do this is usually to attack from further back in the pack. This will make you less noticeable to the front of the pack, and give you enough time to get up to a speed that discourages the front riders from grabbing your wheel.
If other racers in your group are attempting to establish a breakaway, knowing when to follow is key. When deciding if you should follow an attack consider who is initiating the attack, and who is following the attacker. Are these athletes going to go out and blow up? Or is a strong competitor going out with this breakaway that could potentially go out and never come back? Knowing the racers in the breakaway, and their strengths in relation to the timing of the attack will help determine whether you should follow the lead or let them go out.
Once the gap has been established and the breakaway group has formed, choosing your position within the breakaway group is important. Where to sit in the group will depend on who is in the break, how they are riding, and what strategy they may be employing. These variables will help inform where and how you should be riding, and when you want to initiate your own attacks.
You will always want to be as efficient as possible when riding in a breakaway. Keeping this in mind, stay wary of riders that are going to wear you down and chip away at your power. If you find yourself in a breakaway with someone who surges a lot, or paces inconsistently, ideally you will not want to be sitting on this persons wheel. This person will wear you down with sporadic bursts.
Optimally, sitting behind someone who is able to maintain a consistent pace, a smooth pedal stroke and a good draft will ensure the most efficiency. Focusing on efficiency, and conserving energy will keep you fresher longer, and ready to attack when necessary.
Every breakaway is different and will ultimately be affected by the athletes you are racing with, the course you are on, and the conditions on race day. Keeping these variables in consideration, you can always optimize your performance in the breakaway by maintaining awareness of your competitors, focusing on efficiency, and knowing where you want to be in the breakaway.
Your success in a breakaway has more to do with being smart and efficient than brute strength or mere power. Smart racers make it into breakaways, and the smartest ones find a way to win from that break.
This vignette will lead you through the most basic way to use breakaway. For a more in depth discussion of how and why estimating species richness is possible, check out the Introduction to diversity estimation vignette.
Whether you are heading to a job site or out for the weekend, you want trailer gear that works as hard and as smart as you do. Fastway makes hooking up your trailer faster and easier. Our innovative trailer accessories have been featured in Popular Mechanics and have won national awards. When you tow your trailer with the Fastway line you get state-of-the-art engineering and strength with unmatched good looks.
If the distance between your brake switch to the connection point on your tow vehicle is less than 3', purchase the 4' ZIP Breakaway Cable. If the distance is more than 3', we recommend the 6' ZIP Breakaway Cable.
When I saw the ZIP on the counter at the dealership, I thought it looked like a great product. This one purchase has led me to buying a number of things from Fastway. I am always so impressed by the quality of each product. I am looking forward to seeing what they come up with next!
It's super-handy to have the coiled cable, although I had to replace the carabiner with something smaller. The cable is rather long and I have to loop it back and attach it to the coupler latch. I do love the cable not getting in the way of anything.
This breakaway switch is well built, easy to test. I should have bought 2, I need one for my other trailer. No more finger pricks with the cable. The plastic coating and the coiled cable should help and keep it out of the way and protected.

Understanding the drivers of microbial diversity is an important frontier of microbial ecology, and investigating the diversity of samples from microbial ecosystems is a common step in any microbiome analysis. 'breakaway' is the premier package for statistical analysis of microbial diversity. 'breakaway' implements the latest and greatest estimates of species richness, described in Willis and Bunge (2015) , Willis et al. (2017) , and Willis (2016) , as well as the most commonly used estimates, including the objective Bayes approach described in Barger and Bunge (2010) .
