Time Trial / Time Trialling / TT

Identity of #3 becomes public:

Crazy stuff, talk of spiking, threats of violence, fear and the TT Forum is cited. Who knows the truth?

Will pay today. Was out of country when I got the overdue reminder, and no access to the bank card thing that allows me to set up new electronic transfers.

Will email them immediately.

wow, proper shakespearian if true, got bored reading the judgement TBH, seems like they must have thought it was BS if they still banned him for 4 years...

Where are you reading all this stuff?

Up until about 5 minutes ago, there was a pdf. Now removed, hmmm....

Sounds well dodgy. I'm sure a tonne of people have a copy already.

I do :)

Where was the test actually taken? At the 12hr?

BDCA 100, after the 12hr so presumably that result stands.

Cheers. Makes sense, when reading on TTF the other day about a delay in applause when accepting the award.

This makes "interesting" reading, in light of the above...

What the fuck is that? It's like school playground.

There is nothing quite as petty as cycling club power struggles.

What the actual fuck is all that about?

It's by Townsend's GF and refers to some of the incidents cited in the UKDA judgement: namely the offer of fisticuffs in the carpark and the threatening text message.

Because nothing is redacted, the ID of the alleged-spiker is there for all to see.

It's equally interesting not because of what is written, but how it is written: it doesn't strike me as the work of someone who would make a reliable and impartial witness.

Is this the sort of northern folk who hate rapha?

But if someone has made a page like that they must've been getting pretty hassled. I mean, we rip the piss out of each other all the time but none of it's gone that far.

Maybe.

But it comes across as the online equivalent of a green ink letter.

TBF I struggled to follow the chain of events because of the layout: they might well be the victims, but shit at the internet.

green ink letter

had to google

often shortened to "grink" and used as a verb and a noun

What I don't get is why this chap (I don't want to put his name on here, but he is the redacted person) would call his wife a c*** because she's now within 2 mins of him? Sounds like a lovely bloke, regardless of whether he actually spiked someones drink or not.

I'll have to use that in my next discussion I have here about David Icke..

What a massive pack of twats.

Wow, some people really need to have a good look in the mirror and realise that hobbies are supposed to be enjoyable!

I loved the fact that they all seem to have instructed solicitors to write daft letters to each other. I think I should encourage this. Time trialling should involve more expenditure on lawyers.
