Great tips. We don't need to draft right on the wheel in front of us.

You might also look at this video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rdwxu58U0rQ - which talks about descending technique by Pete Penseyres (special thanks to Davis Phinney). Pay attention to the position of the inner knee. You'll note that for descending faster, you will want to position yourself slightly differently than in the video which Lou references. Of course, if you want to go slower, and be more safe and in more control, throw out that inner knee, remembering you are applying an air brake as well.
