I've still not actually managed a club 10 this year. Last week road works meant we had to do a shortened parallel course and this week there was road work on it too and it was cancelled. I did manage a PB on another clubs course but that wasn't hard as it was my first time. It goes through a narrow twisty village with a lot of on street parking forcing folk onto the wrong side of blind bends. It is a village I've been through a few times so I at least knew about it. But apart fro my lack of bottle through the village I was quite happy with my use of the ski poles and did a 25.31Third fastest time on tonights club 10 at Hillingdon . Happy with that seeing as its only the second event .

Another new bike without a picture ????I should have went out harder into the head wind but a colleague has been coughing and spluttering all week and I think he has given it to me so I played it safe and went out in Zone 3 and upped it at the end. My sprint 30mph sprint at the end shows that I kept too much back. Its a change of bike too so not directly comparable but its 1 minute 22s course pb on the NC1/10 at SawtryA long way behind the course record of 19.27 set by Alex Dowsett

I equalled my overall PB tonight but on a course through a twisty narrow and parked up village and I had set it on a 'ski ramp' course with limited junctions so I'm happy with the 25.03PCC10 27:07, 26:27, 26:09 26.06, 25.52

Knocked 1 min 43 secs of my 2 up tt on the 16.7miles course but going solo, 44.10. Doesn't really really feel like a pb though, I was too busy concentrating on staying on the road, than powerPCC10 27:07, 26:27, 26:09 26.06, 25.52

Thats an early TT. I'm still hanging around for my afternoon TT doubt I'll go that fast as its a sporting course and I've never done the course before.Pretty scary at times out there on the A21 this morning due to wind and traffic - put in a 1min15 PB of 25:15 though sadly unofficial as I missed the sign up sheet.
