• Anyone else doing the Nat 10 next weekend? The course is local to me and starts with a ~3mi hill

  • Went for a reccy end of last week, looks like I'm going to be not in the aerobars for the first 10min :D

    We've been faffing with gearing with all our riders, everyone's on something different - Rich Bussell on 58/50, me 58/44, Jess RJ 54/40, Hayley not sure yet but I think 58/xx, Vicky Smith 56/42. Should be fun, last 4km is a bit tight though and you don't want two cars going opposite way whilst you're racing.

  • 😆 is a bike swap mid-race legal in a CTT event?

    I've ridden the hill plenty on the road bike, and am comfortable with a 36 11-28, but I'll be running 56/44 (11-28) Sunday 🤞
    Been lucky on the latter sections in previous races, at least holiday season is over now so hopefully fewer tourists about. Might be a bit of loose gravel to watch out for after this rain, especially on the turn at the top of the hill and when turning west towards the finish.
