Got to be stolen no?

Well organised thief if he took the OE wheels as well as the Cosmics which are in the picture :)

They have been known to be.

Perhaps seller really is just an idiot.

JEJames have P2/105 on clearance at £1625. Assuming the seller isn't an idiot and paid less than that a year ago for a clearance 2016 model, £850 BIN isn't unreasonable.

I mean idiot because there is 1 photos, and 1 sentence.

It just smells like an add by someone who knows nothing of bicycles, which makes me think it's shady.

Triathlete.

Good news guys, I’ve just seen in the latest CTT newsletter that official CTT cycling kit is now available to purchase!!!

Fantastic that the CTT email a link to a webpage where I can download a pdf.

Is the skin suit fast?

I wonder if they charge £1 per purchase?

Ha! Exactly what I was thinking.

Anyone used best bike split for planning/pacing a particular course?

I haven't, but I know Trainer Road cream themselves over it on their podcast - big fans.

Strava. Look at the fast boys pacing strategy, apply to your own weedy numbers.

I tend to look at Steve Irwins first as judging by his posts on ttf he’s likely to have spent a long time thinking about it..

Pacing?

Sprint off the line at 1000w.
Set 5 min power pb.
Realise you’re goinng too fast and cruise the middle.
See the finish line and sprint again.

Nailed it!?

Get up to 30mph ASAP and hold it steady until the turn, then UNLEASH HELL!

Strava?

They're the ones with weedy numbers. Have you seen what I have to push down the road?

Well I have my own pacing strategy which thankfully doesn't quite resemble that but I wondered if anyone had successfully used BBS to create a -better- pacing strategy for a course/courses.

I'll need more than 30mph before the turn.

Trainerroad podcasts?

I developed my own pacing strategy for e2.

You’ve got to think. What keeps my average speed highest?

Drafting lorries?

You’d think I’d at least be able to win if I did that!

Their Ask a Cycling Coach series. I know they use it to work out pacing strategies for their own tri/TT efforts and recommended it to others.

You don't need a pacing strategy on the E2, it's fucking flat and if it's windy your time will be shit anyway :)

I also check that Windsocks site for wind direction forecasts and so where to put in more effort. It has a handy list of upcoming Open TT's.
