BTW you probably won't get into 4th on the dragon, unless you happen to spot the one straight away.
What Nick said.
Also, another good reason to bring radios - nothing wrong with saying, "I can't/dont-feel-comfortable keeping up"... usually you are not alone.
As Nick says, "We're all there to have a good time", so if you are not having a good time, get on the radio and say so and at LEAST let us know you are dropping back. Don't worry, we'll get behind someone slow and you'll catch up soon anyway.
