  • @Pifko I'm using 20mm gp4000s ii on my HED3. Not the fastest option, but I ride to races and decided to sacrifice speed for practicality.

  • May well be faster though

  • Where do they put the results up?

  • Glad you enjoyed it . I was the increasingly cold start time keeper.
    We had 100 riders- last one finishing at dusk..

  • @onyerbike the results usually come out a couple of days after the event via email.

  • Haha I would've enjoyed it more if I hadn't crashed but that was entirely my own fault. Thanks for sitting around watching cyclists go past for 2 hours!

    Out of interest how difficult would it be to find out a rough time for my first 8 laps? I didn't have my garmin last night (long story) but would be interested to know how I was going before crashing.

  • You'll do well to get into the API with a short 56. The cutoff last year was 55:12.

    For my next ride on the E2 I either have to wait until my 56:36 LTS expires so I can get into a MM event, or drive to Wales. Which I'm not doing.

  • Not difficult. We do record lap times. If you ask nicely before the event starts then we may be able to help you.

  • We try and get as many results out on the night as we can , though we do then ratify all times.
    Next week is our first week with transponders so we might be able to produce the results slightly quicker, or possibly not.

  • Thanks, good news about the transponders as well.

  • Shitter innit. I'm hoping that I might get a reserve place. Might have last year had I ticked the box.

  • A pure race tire with reduced puncture protection and reduced mileage!

    Shut up and take my money!

  • You really do need a 20c Conti Supersonic on your Hed3 - throwing away watts.

  • Clincher or tub? Got a barely used one you can have if former

  • That would be great actually. I was mainly laughing at the fact that they advertise it making it sound pretty negative, but it's still got to be better than my current tractor tyre!

  • I'll dig it out tonight and bring next Tuesday..

  • It's actually pretty puncture proof imo, not had one yet and ridden crap roads. And I've done maybe 1000 miles on mine and it looks sweet.

  • However we wouldn't really want to accept something like "....yeah, it was defintely a 42 minute 25, my mate timed it with his mum's alarm clock."

    That's me out, then.

  • @onyerbike you might not have seen it yet but you won yesterday...22:07, which is awesome for a circuit.

    I came 23rd with 25:09, well happy with that. Don't know if anyone ahead of me was riding fixed, might petition them for a separate category seeing as there were a few of us yesterday!

  • There's a Geoghan Hart on that list. Brother? Sister?

  • Little bro. Only 16 and broke the CR last year.

  • Good time. I think fixed will be a lot easier with the standard westerly wind helping up the hill than the easterly we had. Happy with 28.11, means I was probably on a 25 as well until my incident so should be able to provide a bit of fixed competition in 2 weeks.
