My First Time Trial

[ramses]

Hi all,

Completed my first time trial last week. I have also started up my own blog, so I have added my Time Trial details to the blog.

The blog is a work in progress, so hope it's not too bad if you wish to read:

Can't wait for next week!

Oh... That's actually this week now, Thursday. Damn, time flies.

Nicely done. I'm glad the rider in front of me at my first TT didn't crash, that wouldn't've helped my nerves.

I wouldn't worry too much about sprinting at the end, if you've paced it right you won't have much left to do so.

done my first 10 mile time trial last week (5 and 7.25 miles before that) and got a time of 26m45sec. yeah i enjoyed doing it and i had kinda gone into it with a strange morbid curiosity as to how well i would do.

but to be honest it hasn't really gripped me the way it seems to grip most people. im not a naturally competitive person anyway and the preparation (mine and other peoples) just seems to get in the way of my other rides. plus the bike is not so comfortable when set up for time trials

not bothering with tonight's race despite near perfect conditions but i will do it again, just not going to get obsessed by it. maybe im just having a "down" week

well done on your ride though
