TT Smackdown 2025

Cheers. It appears to be 8 miles from Cotswold water park, that can be a nice warmup for me on the day. Family can drop the tents and then get down to race venue later in the day to see me lug my fat ass around the run.

[AndyG]

Right, I’m booked at that campsite (cheers @Jgav ) for the Friday and Saturday nights with family. Who’s up for a parkrun on the Saturday morning?

[Jgav]

Parkrun?

I’m more interested in which pub anyone wants to meet up at for dinner!

I’ve got a list of topics and how long we can spend talking about them. Based on the ratio of posts on here.

We’ll be spending a lot of time on COVID and things we’ve bought and a little bit on lack of training / sandbagging.

[Sowler]

Saturday parkrun meet up sounds good to me. Although I am not doing 113. But live in Cirencester.

TURQUOISE TRIM IS BACK, BABY

[gingerbongo]

How did you manage that then?! Or was this a dirty trick the whole time?

[mw22]

Having to teach the wife how to heckle… I’m not sure how much improvement she will make in 4 weeks!

[Jorgan]

You been sucking off G?

I don’t think you’re in 2019 form are you?

Nah, but these lot can’t ride a bike outside, or swim.
So I just need to trick them into thinking they’ve been beat before they even start

[Bob]

And hope it’s not raining

Because of course, we’re the one’s with the flaky, psychological weaknesses

[pacha]

I hope he doesn’t get cramp on the run

[Poet]

And, so it begins

[Sowler]

Oh FFS, now I really do have FOMO…

[Poet]

I’m just looking forwards to getting thoroughly beat by a couple of M50s, again, if I’m honest.

[mw22]

Anyone know where race day parking is? And is it same for spectators later?
Just looking at logistics and whether easier to bike to start.

[Poet]

In a field just opposite and up a little.
You need to arrive EARLY!!!
Otherwise there’s a massive queue and people have missed their wave before

It’s £5/£10 cash. Can’t remember which.

Not sure where spectators park
Basically, the spine road is out of action and there are few cars around, so not sure about spectators.
There’ll be a pack on the website somewhere.

[Doonhamer]

M50s don’t care about anyone other than M50s if I’m honest
