Looks like @AAAC 76C has volunteered to tow him in...

well done @Brusgaard . i could sense your tired legs
you seemed to be able to follow downhill well but not up so tried to ride it that way
couldnt let you go on your own all the way either
i hope we challenged team blue who appeared to be the only other team on the road

 

[berty bassett]

well that wasn't very nnice
thanks rob for trying to tow me but i was a lost cause
might have to get the pro out of mothballs

Thanks a lot for waiting/towing/waiting/waiting/towing @AAAC 76C. I had almost decided to drop out, when no one seemed to go with me from the start. But then I saw a blue blob starting, and I decided to go on. No record time for me on Stouby-Sejet this time around though. Luckily I bested my BWC stage 15 time by 14 seconds earlier today in the 4PM live race.

Now we can only wait for the third rider in Team Green to cross the line, and make your efforts count.

believe it or not - i am the mystery blue blob - elite 10 one of the last rides on the pro it went berserk on me and i had a years worth of fairy dust in one dump ! i emailed them to let them know it was wrong ( last years winter cup ) so i think i deleted and dropped out but it kept me elite and i just can't be bothered to do anything about it

In this case the blue blob was AAAC, as you had already started 3 minutes earlier @berty bassett

Finish on the road

1) Brusgaard
2) AAAC
3) Rod
4) Pete
5) Bill
6) Bridgy
7) Bert
8) Del
9) Rob
10) Berty

I think that means that Team Blue won (Bridgy 3rd man home) but not really enough people for a TTT

May try TTT again next Tuesday, probably the last Handicap this season as the clocks go forward end of next week, so hopefully we can arrange a good turnout?

No record time for me on Stouby-Sejet this time around though.

I guess that's because it includes the 3 minutes sat on the line, if you take this off you did a 30:40!

 

[BILL S]

Ooof that was tough . I miss my green hat . At least I had an excuse for struggling to keep up then.
And my tow truck was off towing someone else . But on the plus side @bridgy and @peterob did a great job of keeping me going and doing all the work at the front. Thursdays aren't as easy as Tuesdays with only two days of rest.

Corrected Times (Moving Times + Allocated Start Time)

I gave @berty bassett and @rob01792 a Start Time of -3:00 as that would have made more sense for Team Beige!

 

[gbrown]

And here are the Moving Times only

Big improvements for @Brusgaard and @Rod McG

Guess you're right! Without AAAC it would have been more like 38 minutes, I guess...

 

[berty bassett]

definitely got an early day tomorrow so i think i will dust off the pro and see what happens
will put some ghosts in ( if that feature is working ) and will try to keep heart rate av same as today - although it is artificially low at moment due to pills i am on - it is the only constant i will have

Thanks, great work again @gbrown
