Motorpace
Motorpace is a cycling technique where a cyclist rides closely behind a motorized vehicle, typically a motorcycle, to reduce wind resistance. This practice allows the cyclist to maintain higher speeds with less effort, making it popular in training and racing scenarios. The vehicle often serves as a pace setter, helping the cyclist improve their performance.
In competitive cycling, motorpace is used in events like track cycling and criteriums. The motorized vehicle can also provide a controlled environment for cyclists to practice sprinting and endurance, enhancing their skills for upcoming races. Safety measures are crucial, as the close proximity to the vehicle requires precise coordination.
