We all love the KISS starts but it would be nice to have a more civilised approach for other races.
A lot of riders simply cannot put out the huge amount of power necessary to stay with the leading groups, then get disheartened as they ride around on their own at the back.
An AI rider with beacon that cannot be passed during warm-up would work well.
This should be optional during event creation so organisers can choose the kind of start they want.
