Time Trial / Time Trialling / TT

No. Welcome to the fun world of CTT course regulations. You do have to ride up the hill to get to the start though.

he's talking about doing H25/8 not H25/2...

So he is.

H25/8 you don't need to worry about gearing, you need to worry about making sure everything is torqued right and you have dental cover.

H25/8 is not so bad! It misses out the bumpy(er) bits of the other H8 courses.

Recommended gearing for the H25/8?

There's nothing taxing on the course for fixed, so any gear will do. Hard to give any useful guidance without knowing what time you're aiming for and what cadence you like, but you can gear to be at optimal cadence at your average speed and you won't be far wrong anywhere.

The A31?

Dead To Me.

Well chuffed. First 1o in seven odd years on a course I haven't ridden before, and didn't get lost. Also chuffed with the time I did on a road bike with no specific training bar a couple of roller sessions last week. I enjoyed it too, which probably means I could go harder/faster.

Always preferred track and road when racing previously, may be swayed to the dark (TT) side.

You can do it on what ever you want. As long as it's got brakes- So a fixed with a front brake counts

... As long as it's operable from the bars' widest point.

Best race I've ever done. Gutted to not be there today. Especially as I'm in good form.

Anyway.

Perry's rig, now with @xavierdisley chainring. Looks fast.

No disc though?

might be disc for race dunnno?

He was on it and managed to get the very first 58t available when we opened up the order on the 15th. Hayley's on normal rings as she might be using the little ring on occasion.

Scott Davies has just won the U23 Mens National TT. Third in a row for the West Wales man!

Class above.

More importantly, forumite @taogeogheganhart was second.

I think Hayley is going to smash the womens field into dust.

So hayley up 14sec on Pooley after 2 laps.

Pooley is going to Rio, and fairly.

32 second lead for Hayley now

Now 32 seconds up.

Hey I'm doing the updates OK!
