It is indeed 3 times up Box Hill, finishing at the top on the last lap hence 2.5 laps.

Yep Darren's right - 3 times up Box Hill I'm afraid @Whorty ! Here's the Strava segment - https://www.strava.com/segments/19636443 - my PR for it is 1:05:48, but that was done on the Bkool Pro so I'll expect to be a few minutes slower than that

I'll take any victory I can before you're fit again. A few more weeks and you can return the compliments

Xcellent though painful physio visit yesterday as she took me through a few strength amd mobility tests. Muscle loss etc which has a knock on effect on stability and flexion is the real determinant of progress now. She asked me what my goals were and then calmly set out some realistic expectations. I may just get back to pre op power and endurance around June or July. But my November 2017 figures will likely elude me until the autumn.
Thank god for indoor training and you lot to push me

I don't think so. My 2 lap race was 411 m ascending and stg 8 is not much more. The extra 1/2 I read as the distance from the Lower Thames finish line and the finish line on the Mall

Trust me it is.

The details for the rides aren't that clear sometimes (at least not to me anyway!). Oh well, 3 times Box is still less than 2 times Innsbruck, so how bad can it really be

I best plan for another 90 minute ride then

Trust me it is.

Yay!!!

Boooooo

I just sign in 12pm start 2pm Finnish time. It's gonna be tough ride, only 366 riders sign in so far to 2-lap start. Not much help for the draft in a last lap.

It's up to 279 now in the 7.00pm ride tonight, and I'm one of 'em - I'm sure it'll fill up a bit more between now and (a few minutes before) start time.
I found out to my cost the other night that signup closes a few minutes before the start, as I rushed to get online with about 2 minutes to spare, couldn't join the ride and had to wait a whole hour!!

Stage 7 1:43:32

If i can find something good my stage-7 ride, both climb was under 30min. 27:43 and 29:59, so i lost my time in a town.

Is anyone still doing the Build Me Up programme.

I know a few were, but haven’t seen any completed workouts from anyone recently.

I’m still doing it. I’m now half way through week 9 of 12.

I only ask because after this morning’s workout, I’ve decided the bastards are trying to kill me!
