Until the next big bend emerged, Li Ang once again applied the same tactics as at the start.
In some of the smaller bends, the leading cyclists could just follow and lose a bit of distance while still being able to block him.
But with big bends like this one, the lost distance was considerable. Moreover, Li Ang's overtaking on the bends was far from a mere slight move to the outside; he shifted directly to the outermost lane.
This not only increased the physical effort required for them to defend, but also widened the necessary defensive gap.
However, Li Ang, who employed such tactics, would pay even more, whether in sprinting or changing lanes, both requiring a substantial amount of energy.
And the riders in front trying to intercept him could take turns, whereas he was all alone.
But this time, their interception failed.
Beyond the increased difficulty of interception, Li Ang had burst forth with even greater speed than at the start.
