Bloody thunder storm due too!
Could be an amazing float day or a deluge

Found this pic…!
Tt near Jodrell Bank… sporting course … 12? Years ago
Lol
I’m about 13 stone in that pic
Skinny old man now…
Four seconds off that 21 !! Probably took me that amount of time to clip in.
22.03 club event tonight Lincolnshire course.
That single carriageway 21 will be mine - only two more goes at it though
Bad luck Sir. Hot soupy air probably cost you as well…
I think I have done that one near Jodrell Bank.
You look like you are on a miniture bike
I thought that…
It’s just the angle
It’s a medium qr seduza 700 c wheels.
Crappy course the record was a long 21ish back then, a good test.
Or you are a giant!
All the courses are crappy round there really but like you say a good test though.
Any of the J courses round there are rough and slow. I’ll be hitting a few of them again next year. Got to go <60 on J2/9 and want a big PB on the 100
J2/9 is a rough one if I remember right!
I did nothing but 10”s for a year whilst moving down in weight from 14.5 to 12 stone.
All my results are around 24 mins which wasn’t as bad as it sounds on that course, did a 22:55 on a float day.
10”s are truly awful … I might do a few when all this madness ends
22:55 is a very good time, I think I managed to dip under 25 mins a couple of times.
Don’t know where you are based but a little bit further out is the Rainford TT which is a quicker one but on a dual carriageway!
I live much nearer there now.
Did it once in a duathlon event organised by the endurance store…
Stormed the bike and gained 18 places…
then lost them all again on the run… it was the most painful 3 miles of my life, seriously over biked
S**t just got real. First outing for my disc in two years. Taped up the valve holes and everything. Here’s hoping I’m not completely rubbish.
Good luck!
Nice meaty man sized gear you;re in, should make the no pusher clip in start exciting…
Choice of champions Argon 18!
Wether your a podium challenger or dead last… does it really matter… at least you will look good doing it!
Nice one that
Ooh. Forgot about that. Might have to have a quick practice before the off. Probably the first and only time that I wish I could track stand.
Yes it is worth a practice and I’ve seen a couple of comedy efforts. Good hard push with the single clipped in leg in right gear (maybe a second pedal revolution) then you have momentum to clip the other in works best for me, seen a couple try and clip in before rolling forwards…
Cheers @Mungo2! Just really good to put a race number on again.
I wish…!
There will be other years…
30km TT tomorrow evening, Its too flipping hot to do a good time. Last time 2 weeks ago I was 39:40, around 50s slower than my PB in early June
