The sign on the gate said 1915 closing :)
Just had a go for the first time in ages, could tell from the second I got there that it was going to be a slow one - really unpleasantly windy on the north side (was going anti-clockwise).
Standing start, from Sheen Gate mini roundabout, which was an error because it meant I had to finish on one last chunk of bastard headwind, and lap 2 was compromised by a police car doing exactly 20 when I wanted to be doing a little more... Too many excuses. Blah.
Total time 56:40
Lap 1: 18:40
Lap 2: 18:58
Lap 3: 19:02
Avg: 21.29mph
