  • I dunno, Meurig didn't get the 50 record in 2009 when he set most of the rest. It's still Pete Cookson's from '95. In theory I should be able to get it - I'm less than a minute off it at the moment but fitting in these short races when I'm doing 28hr training rides on alternate weekends is sub-optimal.

    Not sure about his 10 record either - I would've still been maybe 30-40s off that on the H10/22 so to beat it, I'd probably have to go and race Hull, which takes up a whole weekend and messes my ultra training up for a <20min ride.

  • I think the 50 looks very doable for you based on the weekends time, you can add on 5 minutes to each lap and still beat it, things in reality are rarely as simple as they are in my head though!

    in my mind Hull is fast enough to just turn up and crack a sub 20, again probably not the case and it probably takes a few goes to get decent weather and to familiarise yourself with the course.

    could you plan riding back from hull (or part of it) to avoid the weekend being a total loss, or do a mid week one as I'm sure there are club events there in the summer?

  • 28h training rides. That's more thna I do in a whole month. Shit.
    Panic training.

  • Just do it on the H10/8.
