Fantasic effort to catch me and Bill. Thought you were gone when you passed us.

I have heard that some of you guys come to Tour of Cambridgeshire. I am ready with a pint for you there when we have crossed the line

That was only because the hill flattered me to get that break. I knew that on a flat course I was at a disadvantage so hit the hill hard. I also wasn't prepared for how quickly that the distance to the finish dropped, I was all set to wind my sprint up at 200m to go, looked at the distance and there was 600m left, looked again seconds later and it was around 100m
, Just not enough time to catch you and Bill 
Yes, going for the TT event the day before, so plenty of time to do a thoroughI have heard that some of you guys come to Tour of Cambridgeshire. I am ready with a pint for you there when we have crossed the line

Not seeing anyone's rides from the CG in the League yet.
Perhaps I have given it the commentators curse.

It's posh in Cambridgeshire.
Not sure they drink anything but PIms there.
I'm surprised about the speed we achieved in December league stage 2. I think Bkool's algorithm overdid the group ride effect a bit there.
It was no walk in the park though. My Garmin told me I got a new 20 min power record of 292 watt, which was actually about the same for the whole race, and a new HR high of 177 bpm.
So about 25 watts of Bkool fairy dust...not at all like the crazy old days.

It was impressive watching you 3 trundling along @45-49kmh for the last 15km. I was jumping about so you may have been going quickerI'm surprised about the speed we achieved in December league stage 2. I think Bkool's algorithm overdid the group ride effect a bit there.

You guys were certainly shifting along! After Bkool left me sat on the line at the start I thought I might at least hold the gap between us if I tried hard enough, but you just kept going away from me. Only Bill's ride is showing in the league but from what I can see on Strava my power was higher than you and Bill but your speed was higher (and we're very similar weight) so it shows the benefit of a bit of draftingI'm surprised about the speed we achieved in December league stage 2.

@BILL S most of the results for stage 2 of CG league seem to be up now but I think you may have to approve mine as I have a couple of red crosses (low velocity for 32 seconds & weight change - changed up from having lowered it previously for my wife, which is something I usually forget to do!)
Yours is approved Paul. If you or AAAC are about on Saturday I bet the quickest time will be beaten. Hopefully all the ghosts will be there to.
Thanks Bill - I do fancy another go at that stage if Bkool will behave for me!
