Time Trial PB's

[Hacienda71]

A mate of mine had an overall average of 27mph for a 50, 100 and a 12 hour combined. He is a tad quicker than most though.......

If they could average over 30 on the route I just took then fair play! They probably could actually, we are only playing at it!

I quite enjoy watching the fast guys go by . Its a pleasure to be on the same course as them and watching them teaches me . When they start after me it also pushes me to try and hold them off for as long as I can . I was surprised I held the winner off for 10 miles and remember thinking Ben hasn't passed me yet . Then he did

8 mile short course tonight, very warm, beat my time by 33 seconds with a 20.30, only 5 seconds off a couple of pukka TT bikes, so obviously well pleased. Still haven't got a proper hat, bought one off ebay and it was too small so returning it.

Been doing club 10's for a few years now using a standard road bike with clip ons. First effort was a 29:29 and I have brought this down gradually each year. This year i have added a forward facing seat post, tri-spoke front and 101mm rear wheels. My PB was set at the end of last season which was a 25:58. It took me a few rides to get used to the new set up. Did 26:04 then followed that with a 26:34 on a very windy evening. Did my first ever 25 on the D25/8e and did a 1:04:48 which came as a real surprise as i'd set myself a target of 1:12:00. Followed this up 4 days later at the 10 with a 24:48 and last thursday a 24:45. Hoping to get nearer to the magic Evens before the end of the season.

That's ok mate, just luck he had another and he only lived 15 miles away so I took the other one back in person last night rather than post and he showed me the met. Hope your house moving is not too stressful!

Ive added a couple of new TT rides PB's although they are funny distances compared to the 10milers :-/

PCC10 27:07, 26:27, 26:09 26.06 Freuchie 10 26:06 (First and only go);
PCC2 Up 16.7miles 45:53;
PCC 22.3miles 1:02:09

After disappointing ride last week I lowered my bars by 25mm and set a new pb. Didn't quite push hard enough so I reckon I can improve on that further.
