It's a flipping quick tyre, I have a good mind to buy a couple more ready for the BKNC next year.

What tyre is it? We need some tyre doping to keep up with the great Danes (well, anybody these days speaking personally!)

If the manufacturer says it can take 145 psi static then they are compensating for impact loading and not taking into account rider weight both of which will have a large impact on the 'in ride' pressure.
Riding on a turbo does not have any of the impacts of road imperfections and or bunny hops and at 76kg real weight I am not much of a tyre burster so I can treat myself to an extra few psi on top of the OEM recommendation to reduce drag.
Tyre doping I suppose or even just hot air.

They do a 700x20 in that one.
You will have to double take at your wheels to make sure you have a tyre fitted and top pressure must be pretty high.

Can you get a better aero position being an infamous eunuch? One would have thought you would have been much faster going down hill if that was the case.

Excellent work Carl. Maybe you'll need to stay on with bkool now that you're taking your admin duties seriously.

Joined a new league last night to keep me busy over the next few weeks : Leagues for Liga Multiplayer

It's a busy league similar to Summer/Winter Cup. I rode stage 1 tonight and didn't make it to page 1 Must try harder

Quite the reverse I think ... too many hills on stage one for a heavyweight I really must lose some weight
