If you're not concerned with time and it's TCR training then wouldn't it be prudent to race on the TCR bike?
Jealous. I've started really hard in both 25s then backed off but not enough, then something's gone wrong and I'm doing 600W while looking at the meter thinking "don't do it dickhead" but being too grumpy to back off, then I'm doing 200W thinking "5 hours in the car for this you idiot" and then it's ok but not great.

Yeah, I thought about doing that. It's caked in mud so I'd have to clean it prematurely though.
My secondary objective for this year was/ is to have a go at getting a decent 100 time, which means getting back on the TT bike.
Also I felt a bit nostalgic when I saw people going under the hour and catching myself thinking 'i used to be able to do that'
I think if I did a TT and had a really crap time I'd hate it. I'd use the TCR bike for a club event on amersham road where I'd ridden out but it seems a bit disrespectful to do it in an open.

That's true. And my PB at Hillingdon is off modest power on a fast night. But I'm not training to get a PB at Hillingdon, but to get in shape for TCR which I'll do on a different bike in different kit, etc.
One thing I was really pleased with was when I looked at my lap splits for Weds evening. First 10 laps were all within 3 seconds, or 2% (Started GPS late so missed the slower 15 seconds at the start). Then I emptied the tanks on the last lap and it was a bit faster.
