Are you local to the Hampshire area?[/quote]


Just looked at your profile and you live in Fareham... Well so do I, Just off Highlands Road in Hampton Grove.

Whats your name and whereabouts in Fareham do you live? And what club do you ride for? Fareham Wheelers per chance?

 

[ianrauk]

Yep,
looking for my first 1000 mile month... it's going to be close..

Ianrauk, you're on a stonking total for this month so far - if you keep up this rate you'll get the thousand for the month surely! Well done

I shall have to keep an eye on you, you're going to surreptitiously creep past me if I drop my guard...

go on mate, you can do it, little bit more effort and you could knock AH down a spot Technically that could give you first spot coz Aran counts his turbo trainer miles I'm rooting for the Tattooed Warlord, unless Helen tells me off

I've some work to do - did c.175km fixed on saturday but christ did I feel it the next day. I need to do more midweek instead of 'binging' on long weekend rides!

I know highlands road

I am in Hill Head, and yes, I am in Fareham wheelers
I'll PM you my name if you really want to know, but there are only 2 TT results of mine up on the internet - 1 was a 10k where I collided with some poultry and then punctured, the other was a 10mile which was 4 days after a nasty crash I had and the "snapping point" of my knees - got a 32 mins (gave up half way round and asked for a DNF but they refused)

Yes, thats right, coz my turbo sessions are harder than my road training miles and in some cases harder than a race itself. I'm still turning the pedals in anger, so surely these must count?!? I have seen others log Turbo miles too, so didn't think it was an issue.

Hope this doesn't spark an arguement amoungst our happy group. If so I won't log them if it makes everyone happy.

Unlucky Montage, but keep it up... You'll get better, you'll see.

I know Hill Head. A lovely place with a great pub on the front, (The Osbourne View). I was second claim for the Fareham Wheelers many years ago, when I was riding for the Navy as a first claim rider. I used to attend the wednesday weekly meetings at Wallington, (Do they still have them?).

We'll have to meet up and ride out to one of your club 10's at Wickham. I'll keep you posted on hear when I can do one.

 

[Auntie Helen]

Aran20, we diss your turbo miles as it's an opportunity to say, "actually, we're doing far more miles than him, and far quicker too - he's cheating." A little self-delusion is a wonderful thing! Others do log 'em as well on Cyclogs, although not sure anyone else on the CC team has one (or does Arallsopp?)

Do you think I should change teams...

I log them because it's a great site to look back over past rides/performances I've done and how I felt for that session/race. It'll be particulary be handy for next year as I'll be doing some really intense Turbo work to ready me to ride, hopefully a superfast 10 and 25 mile time trial, so this winter will be chop bang full of really intense Turbo work, (miles).

Well I was knocking out 26min 10miles until I crashed....and now I am off the bike for a while due to my knees so it may be a couple of months before I am fit enough to go to a TT without embarrassing myself. Yer it would be nice to ride to one of those, even if you do wipe the floor with everybody there.

Weekly meetings are on mondays now - I can't make them

My house is pretty close to the Ozzy View about 1km inland. Closer to the Cuckoo pint though

Shame you're off the bike completely, your knees must be bad, so sorry to hear. Hope you have a speedy recovery Montage.

Aran
Not fussed about peoples turbo miles, seeing as I am competing against myself rather then others.. I learnt that the hard way
