I think conditions were quite varied during the day. We obviously got the slowest conditions out of all of the tandems, easily worth 54 seconds.

Maybe not 54s, but Oliver/Cox must have missed the shower completely, so they probably gained a bit on us. On the other hand, Gaida/House probably had worse conditions than us, which may explain why they only took one second off us on the return leg.

Nice to meet @mdcc_tester and @umop3pisdn on Saturday, although too briefly.
I'm still trying to work out how I managed to go so mysteriously slow. I rode the same course at the end of May on what was widely considered to be a slow afternoon. Everyone was talking about Saturday being a quick day and almost everyone else who rode both events (5ish riders) saw a 30-60 second improvement... I went 30seconds slower off a near identical average power. Humph.
