I rode this in real life over 10 years ago and it was bumper to bumper traffic with huge motor homes hugging the white line. This is great whoever filmed it did it with no traffic

im making the most of early season semi fitness before you all catch up and normal service is resumed , decided to handicap myself a bit (1 minute) it gives me a panic workout to try and catch up . I saw a few of you were riding together and someone I didnt recognise had gone in front so I was trying to catch him , when I caught up with group I saw someones numbers shoot up and panicked again so tried to lose them up the hill solely because I know I have no sprint whatsoever and couldnt leave it till near the end
I hope no one minds that I started staggered , ive been on rouvy longer and have spent my drops on a better frame and wheels , if its a better idea to have the same frame as everyone then I will do that but not sure on the difference , I gain on hills but lose on flat and down on a lighter bike , this way I can fine tune it a bit more , not interested in winning just riding and having fun . if someone good at numbers can work out a handicap then I will go along with it , if I dont hear anything I will add more delay next time . I really hope this doesnt come over as anything other than having fun - I know once fit there are plenty on here who are going to leave me in their dust .there are a few riders who turn up now and then who are so much better than all of us who I try to keep up with but stand no chance once they wind it up near the end , theres a good chance I will try to chase them if I see them on the starting line
