TTM

the problem with clip on aero bars is that its likely to be a pretty odd position, as unless you move your position to accommodate, you'd probably be better staying in the drops as its a position you are likely to be used to and actually allow you to put some power down.
if its anything like any TT I've ever done even with a tiny field you'll have a range of people from those verging on elite level through to people pootling round.
In my experience there only a handful of people who are racing for the actual win, and you're always just racing yourself (although if you do the same race a few times there will be people you'll benchmark yourself against...)
