I'm not sure if its made a difference (as I'm probably not pushing hard enough) but I done the last three TT's on an empty tank and set PB's; the last one winning the Handycap but it probably had more to do with familiarisation with the course for the first two pb's (two different courses fwiw) and new wheels for the last when I knocked a further 23s of the PCC course.

Done the club hill climbs at the weekend (a different sort of TT) and I opted for a small gel 15mins before the start for the first climb (my start wasnt the best);
"Calling No. 2 ?",
"Yip thats me, although my number says 22"
"No its not you"
By the time they realised it was me, I barely had enough time to clip in.

For the second climb, I repeated a gel 15-20mins before the start and that ran well I think, the person I was 5secs slower to on the first hill I was 6secs faster than on the second hill, respectively. Also what might of had a bearing I spun up the first hill in the 34t and run up the second (longer but flatter) in 50t.
