Didn't fancy the 12 in the end then?
Duggelby is riding so we could well see 12hr Comp Record and a record BAR unless he falls apart.

my number one pic as helper was getting too excited by the idea of riding himself, so was going to be too much of a logistical challenge, will give it a crack next year.
Aim for the rest of the season is a 19, a decent ride at the national 25 if I get in and a secondary goal of improving my 100 time so I definitely get into the ECCA event next year for a good crack at a BBAR certificate.
I have no desire to ride in the wrong gear all the time @mdcc_tester..

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!
