  • @Cycliste and I both did our first 100 mile TT this morning at the EDCA District Championships on the B100/4 course. @Cycliste had a rather eventful ride featuring one crash, two punctures and a broken Garmin mount which ended up being held together with gaffer tape. However, thanks to support from another club member she was able to finish with a time of 4h48m40s, beating the women's club record for a 100 by 35 minutes.

    I had a rather uneventful ride, apart from having 3 bottles auto-eject, and finished on 3h56m57s, which was enough for 3rd on scratch.

    My legs are achy.

  • Well done. I did a 4.08.45 with no bottle ejections. In fact I drunk less than a litre from a bladder.

    Is it normal for it to hurt to pee after a 100? Need to sort out a saddle solution as it was a major discomfort.

    Felt I paced it well though, first three 25's were about 62 mins and the last was 63 mins.

    Doubt it. My post-race pee didn't hurt, but by God it was a relief. I'd been busting for a piss since halfway through the second lap.

    Felt I paced it well though, first three 25's were about 62 mins and the last was 63 mins.

    As far as I can see from my Strava data, dividing it up into 40km chunks, I did:

    1:00:13
    59:16
    59:27
    58:23

    I was riding to power numbers though, which obviously helps with pacing.
