Do it mate ! There are fellas alot older than me doing them . Its odd to see the younger ones at an open .

Ive just started TT and I'm pushing 40!! Isn't it scientifically proven the older you get the more stamina improves! Not sure what I prefer yet a 25 or a 10!

Most of my pals still racing are 60+ we will see how the winter goes. Arthritis stopped me last time.

How many years away from the next decade do you have to be to be "pushing" it?
Just had a thought that at 66, I must be pushing 70 now and still tt'ing

You're all making me feel old.

Thanks for the heads up. Im only doing it on my road bike as I'm very new to doing them. Might be something to look at for next year

For a Q course, I think the Ashford one is quite fast. Riders I know who have been riding the Ashford series and our Grain series are reporting faster times on the Ashford one.

Tried something different tonight. A hill climb. Just under a mile long and Climbing over 200ft. So pretty steep in places. Did 4 mins 25. Averaged about 12mph. I had the national junior champ a minute behind me and he only caught me on the last bend. I'm nearly twice his weight! So I'm well pleased with that. Having him behind probably spurred me on a bit.

Cheers. Me + bike is probably 100kg. I've done flat tt's and hilly tt's and am more suited to the hilly / rolling stuff despite my weight. Wouldn't fancy a full on hill climb longer than a mile tho
