It wasn’t the worst turn out ever but would have been brilliant with a few more. I tried an early solo break away but Paul’s FTP is immense in comparison to mine. Ohh well, onwards & sideways.

As @Alongo said earlier you deserve the combativity award for all those early attacks you put in! I decided to stay calm and not chase you too hard in the hope that you couldn't keep it up or I'd catch you on the hill - or alongo and I could maybe work together to reel you in! The benefit of racing people you know I guess

I said I couple of weeks ago @Milzy I think you can only get stronger if you keep pushing the way you are. I think you’re going to push me personally very hard.

Paul sounds like you showed all your experience. I guess you’ve won races in a variety of different ways and it’s brought a real level of calmness to your riding. Maybe it was always there. I’ve noticed it from being in a pack with you.

I better not post any more today. I’ve already used up all my compliment points in this post. So now all I have left is the sarcasm and needle...

Sorry, missed the race. We missed our flight at Gatwick, after arriving at the gate too late. We were there 25 min before departure, the crew were there and we could see our plane on the other side of the window, but they insisted we were late:cursing:. Seems nuts that they would rather use 10 times the energy to dig out our bags.

Missed the race too. That slot is often not a good time for me but will try and make it when I can. I'll look to ride that route when I'm on Zwift so as to get a time for that Strava segment.

Nightmare Lars! Hope it didn't cost too much to get it sorted :ohmy:

Same for me last night, 7 was too late as had to help HID with something. Hence why I (stupidly) went for an early run instead. Should be OK next week. :okay: Will try to fit the ride in this weekend although still have this lurgy hanging about, and legs are absolutely shot from that stupidly short run yesterday (is this a valid excuse @bobinski ) , so not sure my time will be very competitive :whistle:

no tt bikes allowed again ?
No TT bikes, no. I know those in the race get a theoretical advantage from drafting, but when there's not many in the race like last night, some people will go through much of the race on their own anyway (I did about a third of the race on my own, and others more I think). So it's probably only fair that we have the same rule for everyone - and it's an added incentive to not be lazy and join in the live race :okay:

Just a thought on these meet-up rides. If you can't make the Thursday 7pm ride and don't want to have to just set a time solo there's nothing to stop you setting up your own meet-up at a different time for the same course if you can get a few people together for it
