Time Trial / Time Trialling / TT

went to my first proper actual competitive TT last night.
An 8mile ride there, perfect warm up, bit rainy though, the sign-up time came, and went, nobody there! According to the local bike forum/TT club there was about 25 people supposed to turn up + timing crew, but no-one! Was in the right place according to website calender and right time, guess the rain kept people indoors lol.
Got back on bike, rode to sainsburies, got cake, rode home, ate cake. I definitely won at cake eating.

How rainy? Seems odd that it would just be cancelled though?
