Thanks Tom. I'm sure there'll be one or two joining you. The least number who ever turned up on a Saturday was two. It was me and @Randyberlin :smile: remember that one Randy?
Are you kidding? Remember it! It is the highlight of my bicycle career. I almost always start every conversation with strangers by mentioning I once came in second in a race to Bill S. I was even contemplating a tattoo with "Second place Bkool race lost to Bill S" in Chinese letters.

Well team Green now have a third man across the line, @gbrown could you do the honours?

Afraid 2 weeks off the bike meant that I couldn't stay with you and even though I set off at great gusto spending the first mile or so with team dark pink when you caught up to me I just hadn't got the legs in the hills to stay on the back.

I did really try though and genuinely had to lie down next to my bike at the end.

Go team snot.

My proudest moment is when Bill let me beat him in a sprint to the line! I have a recording of it on youtube and watch it regularly! :wahhey:

39 seconds of glory...

Bill, I hope you realise how much joy and happiness you spread in Bkool world! :laugh:

On that basic if we all got together I reckon we could draft each other to a massive and imperoius (i had to google that word) victory.

Well done Team Green, your Team time is 32:40 and you are now in second place

Latest Standings
Team White = 31:19
Team Green = 32:40
Team Not Red = 33:47
Team Blue = 33:49

Also, well done Bazzer, taking another nearly two minutes off your time. I think we may have to juggle the teams around slightly! It would be good to get five in at least some of the teams.

Who's up for next Tuesday's TTT, hopefully if you couldn;t make it this week you can have a go next week?

I think the course will suit drafting better...

Cheers,

Geoff

I remember it well Geoff :smile:. However, what I remember is you closing in behind me towards the end and then powering past me a few seconds from the line, and there being nothing I could do about it. :ohmy:

I suspect I am nearer in time to team white, could bleach my new uniform if you need to juggle teams around. Is a great format really makes you feel part of something.

Well one of the highlights of my cycling career was when you implied that I was BADASS!! I proudly sported the avatar you gave me for at least 6 months :biggrin:.

Team blue - unlikely as it may sound, Geoff appears to be suggesting we came......LAST?!!

I hope we're all in agreement that we can't let this happen again??!!
