  • Hoping for a bit of advice for the upcoming National 12hr TT which I plan on entering. It's on the bumpy Bentley course - H12H/8

    @umop3pisdn - I will PM you for some specific questions if that's ok? I know you rode and wrote about it last year.

    Main Questions -

    I will have support from hours 4 -12. I was going to leave all my stuff at the Hen and Chickens Pub for them, but before that, I was going to label up bottles and have them at the official feed zone. Is this a bad idea or will it work ok?

    I plan on having one bottle BTA that I swap each 20 mile lap, plus a backup bottle in a rear cage, just in case I miss one or need extra. Is there a go to BTA mount? I was planning on making my own if not.

    Although I will tape food to bottles, I want a backup so planned on having a top tube bento box with backup gels, chews etc. Is there a good one out there? I have a narrow, quite pointed top tube so this one will prob not stay put. It also has poor reviews.

    Will prob think of loads more questions, but that's it for now!

  • I'd be interested in some 12h advice too. I've entered the Nationals, and I've never done a 12 before. In at the deep end and all that. Likelihood of getting a ride might be a useful starting point.

    Pretty high. National got just over 90 entries last year on a course which BAR contenders would probably favour over the H12H
