In case anyone is interested, I've written a brief blog of my first TT of the year.

Better get the new bathtub installed before the wheel building. Did you go with black spokes?

I will Randy. Sapin blade black.

I'll let the wheelbuilder get them, once hes worked out spoke lengths

Nice improvement there Martin , once you get used to putting the power down on the TT bike you’ll surely achieve your 10 mile target .

Great effort, and I always enjoy reading the writeups

That reminds me, this week is the 25th anniversary of my first 10-mile TT. I was 14 years old and knocked out 29:18 on the A4 Bath Road course just west of Newbury. I had a Giant Speeder with 7-speed Exage and dreadful oval Bio-Pace chainrings! I got hold of some 3T Bio Arms clip-on tribars and managed 25:50 the following week, and was down at 24:19 by the end of the season (and 21:58 by the end of 1997...)

For those who have the Strava leader boards, who else in CC have gone up Cheddar and how bad is my time in comparison? I was 14:20 for the full climb segment (but on 30 mile legs ). Be interesting what an 'ok' time is if I had fresher legs

12:14 is my quickest time according to Strava, that was back in 2015.

Bugger. I need to find quite a bit of time to get near you

You’ve thrown down the gauntlet now Carl.
I did it in 15:26 but I was conscious I still had a 50 mile ride to get home.
I will give it another go on a weekend soon I would to try and beat that time.

Bottom left looks interesting. Still in beta and I don’t know if a zwift thing or not;

That might be a gorge to far to beat that.
I need a updated @Spartak 2021 time to go for.
