Time Trial PB's

I managed to get a PB on the C25/22 of 1min and 15s on Saturday afternoon. I got held up at two roundabouts and it was in 30deg heat. So I'm confident on another day I could go faster again but I am pleased with the 1h2m53s. Lol it's the first time I have finished a TT and been barely able to stand up but I finished and a lot of folk didn't so I finished 16th 😂
 
The OTs aren't up yet but if Garmin is right I've managed an all time PB of 1min and 10s on a 10miler today with a 22:30 down at Cambourne. I think I can improve on that as I got held up at the turn and had a 5.5miles finish into a 20.8mph headwind.

Edit OTs are in and the Garmin is 3seconds out it was a 22:33 :hyper:

I did a 30miles PB today, which wasn't hard as it was the first time I've did the distance. I paced it a bit conservatively thinking about what I could sustain for longer. If Highways England goes ahead and resurfaces the road near Mulbarton I may do a 50 or even a 100 on it next year.
As per my run of luck this year I had to indulge in a bit of track standing at a roundabout (who would have known Attleborough was so popular :laugh:). I came away with a circa 1:09:46 according to Garmin, we'll see what the OT says though :okay:

Its still to be ratified but if the Strava segment (+6/7secs) is accurate I've managed a circa 3mins course PB on the B25/8 today. Its about 30s of my all time PB back in May but there's a couple of miles of patched concrete road where I had one hand on the base bar to control those bumps and Highways England are due to fix it so fingers crossed for that next year.

Managed a 48:32 on the F2A/25 on Saturday. A PB for me by 34s, very happy with the time and more importantly how I rode it, managing negative splits across the four segments of the course. Would have been nice to have found a few more watts but it was a 25 mile power PB too.

Two more events this season then straight into the built for next year. I’d like to find at least 10w over the winter, ideally 14.

10 mile TT was cancelled over the weekend due to road works on the course. I had a shot at a PB and a win, so gutted. One more race left (4 up at Thruxton), and then into winter training

That's an amazing time. When I did my PB's, comp record was a mere 52 mins and my best was a lot slower than that.

Thank you.

Sadly for me I did the second best ride of our house that day, Mrs O did a 54:44, which was good enough to beat my plus time by around 20s. That takes us to 4-4 on plus times for events we’ve both ridden this year. We have two events this weekend, so I’d best make sure I don’t lose 6-4 :cry:

I finished the season with a course PB on the B10/37R of 23:36. It actually beats last years drag strip (E2/10) pb by 4secs and it's only 63s slower than this season's drag strip pb on the F2A/10. So I am quite pleased (despite the face) :okay:

Next season I have to concentrate on getting the power out early doors.

That’s a proper time trial face. The last thing you want is to look like you’re not trying or hurting :laugh:

Unfortunately no pictures :laugh: but I managed to beat that sporting course PB last night on the pancake flat course on /barrier Bank at Spalding.

With an eye on a 50mile TT at the weekend I didn't go flat out so I'm sure I can beat it again.

I've still not beat the hour for a sporting 25miles but my PB stands at 1h1min46s on the B33/25 last month.

A kinda PB for me today a 1:58:54 for a 50miler. I say kinda as it was the first time I've done a 50miler, the F2/50 at Cambourne. I have a weird feeling of happiness and disappointment. After about 5miles my left hand started going numb and I quickly realised it was an old injury starting to manifest and by circa 30 miles my left bicep was agony and the pain made me forget about drinking the 500ml I carried in a bladder stuffed down still had well over 400ml at the end.

A course PB by 71s at Guilden Morden (old PB 2017) and 3minutes and 21s faster than last year. I sat up on rough sections and sharp bends/downhills to protect this elbow. Given I wasn't 100% aero, I am happy with that 🙂

I just need to figure out how to get out of my SS/Comfort zone a bit earlier and ride at 90% not 83% 🙄
