Thursday Night - Hour of Power

8 laps in 10 minutes I think your average should have been something closer to 40 mph AMAZING!

Ha. I probably could've used a semicolon to reduce ambiguity. Oh well.

Just to give people advance notice there are long stretches of resurfacing/road works going on in regents park this week.
As I was in there today and its a bit dodgy with raised man hole covers etc.

Which bits, JD?

Which bits, JD?

The first stretch that was stripped for resurfacing was the corner as you come up past the zoo towards the mosque and road next to the running track is totally closed and they had just started another section after the traffic lights at the junction of the mosque.

It's not bad in day but could be a nightmare at night especially as that corner is pretty badly lit.

Ta, was going to pop out for a cheeky hit tomorrow night.

Ooohhh, shiny new surface.

This is a temporary annoyance but very exciting too!

Cheers, JD. I wish they'd sort out the Inner Circle though. It's been fucked for years, and now there's some sort of not-much-happening-for-months-on-end stuff cluttering up the low bit.

^ x100.. so irritating. Spent an hour on it this morning.. felt like my fingernails were about to rattle off by the end. Loads of unnecessary builder vehicles stopping (making riding CCW a deathtrap) too..

Any news Tom? I was planning on dicking about tomorrow night..

Did a nifty fifty this morning, pubbing tomorrow, hoping to sneak another daytime hit in somewhere on Friday, probably at the park.

Out this morning - by the septic ambassadors house is torn up - it's not too bad. Stick it in a bigger gear and do some pavé training.

If any one is feeling tomorrow morning I am meeting a friend at 9 am at the south east entrance for an hours blast (he is slow so won't be anything exhausting)

I'm looking forward to the longer days to do this in the light.

+1 next week's HoP is gonna be the one.

Yup. Which reminds me, I need to get photoshopping...

I'll be up there tonight. Geared and in orange and dicking a round as ever..

Time for 6pita's awesome welcoming HoP images!!!

ah i see... maybe he wants to do some work for the TNRC too... ?

Looking forward to coming out of hibernation next thursday. Probs be quite slow though.

Not the only one :)

^fooling nobody

Hope you haven't run out of clever names!

Not the only one :)

glad to see you're becoming a parody of yourself!

Back out again tonight for some more pre training, training so that I can be good and ready for the formal start of the HoP next week.

I'll probably be at the corner near Park Sq East at 6.30. Bright blue Planet X.

I shall be there, on my boat anchor cross bike with squeaking disc brakes.
