Time Trial PB's

[Hip Priest]

I broke the 25 minute minute barrier the other week with a 24:47.

Still lots of room for improvement as I'm a few stone overweight and ride a standard road bike with clip-ons.

Got 25:00 for a 10 tonight at Tring . Dammed that 1 second and it would have been a late 24

25, nice one, I hope to get into the 25's on our 10 as the season progresses!
Got our "hilly" 13 tomorrow night, just hope the wind isn't too bad as hoping to improve my time on that one!

I hope to get a 25 at Hillingdon by the end of the season . I'm 27:32 there . That started at 30 , 28:45 , 27:32
I got a 31 something at Gt Missingdon and took the handicap . That was 11.4 miles Then this one at Tring .
Sundays is at Gt Missingdon again but the other way I think . At least I know that course . Tonight I think I lost a good few seconds at the roundabouts . It was marshalled and I drove the course before hand but its not the same when you're riding for the first time .

I did the 13 mile hilly course tonight, improved my time by 1.14 with a 35.53, the quickest time was 32.21 so I'm still a good 3 and a half minutes off the best! But, I got crippling cramp half way round in both calf muscles. I had to roll off and cruise best I could, occasionally standing up trying to stretch my legs and use different pedalling techniques, I honestly thought I'd have to bail out, it just wouldn't "go away". However, I guess after a mile or so it started to subside a bit and I managed to push on and complete without it coming back like it had done before. That's the first time that has happened and I can't really explain it, it could be lack of hydration but I thought I'd drunk enough, or too small a warm up, or just pushing too hard to start with coupled with a rather large hill that I tried to blast up, perhaps I tried too hard.
So to improve my time even with the cramp issues was ok, just wonder what might have been!

Had to alter that again, despite conditions being less than ideal and being stopped by a marshal at the blind corner I set another PB https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/807972425

It's been a few years since my last true PB for a 10, but now get a lot of satisfaction from dipping inside my Age Standard and last night was a pretty good night and managed a plus 0:26 secs. Not my best age std, but each year it gets harder and pleased that I have ticked the target for this year and still riding after some 48yrs since my first 10!

Have a lot of admiration for some of the good oldies who manage pluses of 4 and 5 minutes.

Managed a seasons PB on my clubs evening 10 last night.

26:57 on the sporting UC108 course.

Had no warm up & Garmin turned off after 1 km so didn't have my 'Virtual Partner' !

25.34 on our B/10/39 10 mile club TT tonight, beat my best by 59 seconds! Quickest time was 22.30 ish (can't quite remember). Wanted to get in the 25's so well pleased with that.
Edit, quickest was 22.34 - course record pace.

Nice one ! I want a 25 at Hillingdon but one of the faster riders told me it took him 3 years to get it . I'm still aiming for it by the end of the season though .

One of my mates got a 25 flat last time out when I was a marshal, which got me thinking I could get into the 25's myself. Pretty much perfect conditions last night, loads of pb's around. Not sure how I could go a lot quicker than that, it was a proper effort, but I will try again next week (different course though) temperature forecast is 29 degrees next Thursday!
