Damn thing booted me out just before the start so I began about half a minute after @Goldwolfie instead of in front of. Then after a network drop the only person I could see on the road was Gregory relentlessly tracking me down.

I think we could team up! Somehow I held you off to start with using silly wattage, you must have really pushed as well!

Bridgy, I tried to draft but I went too far into the red trying( I saw your technique 
) Bob, what was this wonder trick about unplugging the trainer, mine took exception to that and made it doubly hard
. I felt quite tired at the start and thought any gap I made on Bill on the down slope would of been eaten up on the mid climbs. Virtually same watts and time as last my last run on the Banff. Well done everyone

Yeah I was a bit ruthless when you were trying to latch on to my draft - you did beat me last time out though so.....!Daddy P Wow 503Watts
For the record, I DID change my weight back AND, I unplugged the trainer and plugged it back in again, and closed the sim and restarted before the ride. Didn't seem to give me any adverse effects though - the opposite if anything!!
That felt like
Bill, just like the old times, you reeling me in and overtaking me on a hill
Well done all. That is a strangely punishing ride.
Goldwolfie! nearly got you on the line!
Bob, those old times were so much easier. Before everyone got fit and before all these fast guys came along. I assumed you let me beat you there, as revenge for me letting you win that time 2 years ago. Remember?

To be honest Bob I thought you had pipped me, but I was well out of it by then, so didn't really know what was going on.
I'll have to perfect the starts on these handicap races, as this time I sat on the line for 90 seconds waiting for my start time at 20:01:30 before setting off. I didn't realise those 90 seconds would be added to my time.

Well Andy, I was so late starting I had no warm up and forgot to unplug ad then restart the turbo. Whether or not it makes any difference is only anecdotal. I do know that was my worse ride on that course, 50w down on my best. I tried to keep you at bay and then when you passed catch you on the bumps but you were too strong. Great ride.

I know what you mean. I only got to see him nearer the end. Stealthy old boy that he is.... sorry middle aged...
