  • Well I hope your 50 went better than mine Scilly. Zip on my skinsuit broke just before my start, so I had to pin it together.

    Elite Crono bottle look really good in a BTA setup, but pisses out its contents every time you go over a bump. Which when you ride on UK TT courses, is quite often. Pretty sure I only drank about 100ml from it.

    Didn't really try hard enough, shit power,kept getting distracted. Head wasn't in the right place, mentally or physically.

    Oh, and I missed the fucking finish. Went on straight past the finish sliproad. Said fuck a lot, walked the bike back to the finish. Was on for a 1:53 which is still shit. Don't even know if I'll get a time or a DNF, would probably prefer the DNF tbh.

  • Was on for a 1:53 which is still shit

    Compared with what? You've only done a 55 for 25 miles, so anything under 1:55 for 50 would be acceptable.

    Don't even know if I'll get a time or a DNF

    It's a DNF if you didn't traverse every part of the course, so if you go off course you must retrace to the point of departure and then continue on course from there.

  • 25 PB is 54:18 from last year. 55 was on a shit day. I know what I could have done today but I didn't do it.

    I didn't technically return to point I left the course, rejoined about 50 yards from it. TK did ask if I'd done the whole 50 miles though, so maybe she's given me a time. There was a bit of disruption with the results and I haven't seen a photo of the board yet so guess I'll wait for full results.
