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!
