fair enough, yeah, I didn't think it was that fast but Pete Harrison still did a 1:39, was hoping that the speed would increase for the second half but the road was ridiculously quiet and it didn't seem to get much warmer over the course of the morning.
was going well for the first half but bottled it/died, lost 20 watts for the second half, and got caught by someone id overtaken just after the start, which is always embarrassing! the combo of wind and losing my chain 3 times meant I found it really hard to get into any kind of rhythm, need to sort out a chain catcher, as I don't think the money/watts saved for not having a derailleur is worth it!
I'm not saying they are slow, just that to me they don't feel as fast of confidence inspiring as the speed corsas. I should add that I did Mallorca 70.3 with the specialized turbo cottons and mountain descents in heavy rain was definitely too much for them, so perhaps I pushed them a bit harder than you're average tter, but there were times I was just sliding rather than slowing down!
What happens to you today @umop3pisdn mechanical or just had enough of the a31?!
Need to get more than one 50 and 100 in per season, although my legs felt fine throughout I never really had the confidence to push as hard as I know I can, didn't really do the time I wanted.
