I like Paul. He gave me loads of info and tips before my first TCR and I still have the framebag he sold me. I knew he DNFd one of them because he was crook but I couldn't remember the other one - I remember he dropped lots of time in Croatia due to the wind but I couldn't remember if he finished it off or not.
I see names I recognise in the start lists but the problem is unless I've had direct interaction or they're memorable then I don't know if I recognise them from dot watching or if I recognise them from being in a race I've also been in.
I met up with Ed Tapp from last year's TABR on Saturday and it was funny because he talked about how we split costs in a hotel room last year and I have zero recollection of it. I remember splitting with Ryan on two different nights but not Ed. I do remember Ed out-climbing me and I'd keep catching him on the descents and chatting about software for a bit and then drinking chocolate milk at a supermarket and then he disappeared until the finish but no hotel stay. I really should've written a post-race blog..
