• Off up to Hull tonight for a crack at 'the course' up there tomorrow morning. Despite feeling really rough this week, still pretty excited. I've been trying to go sub-20 for over a year now, would be nice to break it this month or next as I've got to give up testing this summer. Wish me luck..

  • Good luck! Club mate mentioned it looked like a strong headwind on the longer return leg which is annoying, but still - quick course so will still be fun!

  • Cheers, both (@hippy )

    Slow morning on the V718, your mate was right - strong headwind on the return leg.

    Still, finally broke my 20 minute duck with a 19.37. So very relieved, there were a few points last night sitting on my own in the Premier Inn Hull West wondering "what the hell am I doing here?". Rode pretty much spot on plan of 399w out and 402w back.

    My minute man told me I should definitely try out 180mm cranks given my leg length. Didn't have the heart to say I had another few months of testing before selling all my stuff and getting fat.
