It’s the Watopia pretzel TT.
I am doing one lap so approx 44 Miles. My best time was post worlds a couple of weeks ago at 2h 36. I finally beat me old pro times. Ryan has done a recent 2-21 and Andy a 2-41 in summer so he would be faster now.

I think I’ll be happy if I find a group to sit in at a decent clip. Are you going to try and beat your PB?

 

[bobinski]

Nope. At the moment I cannot hold 4w anywhere near long enough to make the times necessary on the climbs. If I can grab a group- and that depends on whether everyone rushes off as if it’s a race- then a 2-45 is possible. Fact is I am doing it so I can eat and drink as much as I want tomorrow night

 

[<Tommy>]

Same really. I’m gong to do long-Ish steady rides all week if anyone fancies joining me.

Hopefully see you tomorrow Bob.

 

[berty bassett]

want to do a bit tomorrow
not sure yet if its outside or in shed but just incase - what time are you 2 kicking off ?

 

[bobinski]

8am Lee. 8-5 start. Just set my alarm for 6-10. Water bottle filled and in fridge. Emery bar and gels lined up. I’ll probably oversleep But if I don’t and you hopefully join in I am NOT racing

Anyone doing it be aware 2000 have signed up. I would log in and join the ride as soon as you can. I am aiming for 7-30. That will hopefully reduce risk of not being able to join or being there but not seeing other riders

Emery bar?

I had four 800 mil bottle s for this morning s ride and 3 energy bars

 

[bobinski]

Ha! A slightly longer ride!
I have two boxes of bars and 90 odd sis energy gels beside the turbo. I will also make up a high 5 4/1 drink in the morning for the second hour of the ride.
