Time Trial PB's

[montage]

Well today's 10 was decidedly uncomfortable. Avg power was down due to the heat/humidity but I still managed a PB as there was zero wind (PB 23:12). I am a bit annoyed with that as I was on for a 22:XX but encountered traffic at the turnaround slowing me to a stop, so I think I lost a good 15-20sec with standing time and getting back up to speed. I hope the driver in front of me had their windows up as the air was pretty blue (she slowed and stopped completely even though there was no car coming from our right on the RAB...I think she was a new driver). Still, a new PB so I can't complain.

That 22:xx WILL be mine before then end of the yr.

We've had Rob's power, what was yours out of interest (if I may inquire)?

My normal threshold pwr over a 10 is about 300 normalized, but today I only managed 279 due to the heat & humidity, which had the effect of raising my HR, thus I couldn't push as much as I wanted too. Everyone I spoke to at the event said roughly the same, but there were some insanely fast times from the top riders, Matt Bottrill did an 18.25

Fantastic. Well done!

I've got two TTs left this season. Need to find 5 seconds to get a long 24. My aim at the start of the season was to get under 30 minutes, so I'll be chuffed to get under 25!

Rob and I have much in common.

He can average 30mph for ten miles; I can average a very similar speed for about......10 seconds!
