Time Trial / Time Trialling / TT

If you chop the sides off the third photo it'll look really cool
Disclaimer: might not be that cool

anyone probably @mdcc_tester know if the roadworks have cleared up on h10/2 for tonights TT there?

We're planning on racing the tandem, so hopefully. They were still there on Sunday though.

Don't know yet, I should be there about 1830 and if the traffic is backed up to the thicket like it was last Thursday it probably means the roadworks are still ongoing, I'll tweet when I see what's up.

cool, will follow you then!

really hope its on then!

hoping for a cheeky pb this evening, think my course PB is 24:08, so at least that should be easy!

They are still present according to http://roadworks.org/

Apparently due to finish today though.

Google maps traffic still showing it backed up there now.

MDCC bods have been on the case, the council have issued a notice to the contractor to fuck off within 24h, so with any luck we should be OK for tomorrow.

hmmm, may have to go along then, so muhc laziness this week though...

It would be great to see a few forum folk along at either of my next two events. So I hope a wee bit of self promotion is OK.

The club 10 8am Saturday 27th June near Potters Bar. Entry is £2 for non-members (i.e. enough to cover the CTT levy), just turn up on the day. Full details HERE.

The Open 10 is 6pm Saturday 25th July 2015 on the F20/10 near Ware, Hertfordshire. Entry is £10. Full Details HERE.

Equal prizes for top women and men.

Where?

Ware. Who's on first base?

At least it's not No Place

@Cycliste 's brother lives in No Place. It's an odd little village.

It's an odd part of the world, I grew up not far away so cycled there a lot as a kid.

The Mary is worth a visit. Good beers.

HC = puke, no?

Just once this year I'd love to race a TT without fucking wind or rain.

Change country.

fucking wind

1:52:27 in the National 50 today on 106", 18th place. Pretty happy as I did 1:55:30 about a month ago, and that's the best result I've had in a National. Bit of stress beforehand as we didn't know for sure what course it was going to be on until about 90min before the first rider! 44sec faster would have netted me 12th, bah. Bottrill won with a 1:41.

Now in a total state trying to feed myself jelly beans.
