chatted with some clubmates about entering some local 2 & 4up TTs. Think they are 10 and 20 miles respectively.
I have only done DIY audaxes but it sorta seems like riding with a bunch of guys at a steady pace seems like not that great, training wise.

I would of thought things like this would help with the practicalities of TCR ? Equipment, comfort, navigation, feeding ?
Plus riding at a steady pace for long distances would seem to be good training for riding at a steady pace for long distances ? Mixed up with shorter rides at higher intensities (Longer TTs).Not having done anything like TCR though I'm just guessing.

Tried Time Trialling ? Especially the longer distances ? A 50 is probably speed work for something like TCR.
I'd imagine Audaxes would also be good training, if anything to get you used to navigating, equipment and check points. Whilst also putting miles into your legs
