Koms on the flats are allmost getting imposible around here now, the only way some of them could have been achieved is by drafting a tractor or with massive tail winds. Nobody can average over 30mph without some sort of assistance.
Best you learn how to draft then :>)

You'd be surprised.


Hang on, did someone else say that too?

There are some monstrously fit and powerful riders out there. Some of the guys around here probably aught to be pro. I'm happy with top 10 places in most cases as I recon that puts me ahead of a lot of the bunch.

Yep we have some seriously quick guys around here including various world champions, national champions and pro team riders. Even one or two triathlon world champions, but we don't mention them. :whistle:

Got a second overall, on the way home, on a bit I wasn't trying on and didn't improve my 6th place on one that I was trying on and thought I could KOM. Whats all that about then.:wacko:

Then got home this afternoon to find that I lost a KOM. :angry::training:

Thought I'd nicked a rare kom from a colleague this morning, an obscure segment just how I like 'em, only trouble is the segment goes the opposite direction to what I thought it did :blush:

Oh well, there's always tomorrow :bicycle:

Nightmare. I had the same with a b*tch of a climb. I am around 5th on it, i think, and i flew up it and totally died at the top. When i got home, expecting a KOM, i had only Pb'd by two seconds. A good 30 seconds off top. My ego looked at bit like this.......:B)
