Just done a warm up to see the course although the climbs are short they certainly do hurt when racing.

Well done all, not a easy course this one

I forgot how many ups and downs there are ..... that hurt a lot. Much prefer this kind of race though compared to a straight climb as tactics, surges, resting all play its part.

57:42 - lots of us close on time. Would have been a good race if we were all together

Great time Martin That weight loss is helping you

I crashed and burned on the 2nd lap my heart rate was unusually high through out and i couldn't get my breathing back down after the start, i was losing so many places it was ridiculous, so i bailed
Will try again tomorrow, if im honest i wasn't really feeling it tonight as it was.

It looked like lots of riders blowing up and losing draft in the pack, I had at least 5 occasions that happened I had like you Carl, so had to blast by them to catch the pack

I am still felling absolutely crap , I may have to do it on the wife’s Mobility scooter , hope I have a little bit of relief to try in the morning before my other duties start again

Spreadsheet updated with today's available times. Some good results there and a lot close together.

Looks like there'll be a fair few of us riding tomorrow

I must admit bit of an advantage when you have a time to aim for. My plan was just to go for the hour 15min Laps. All was going well in my group and then I think everyone was done last lap was slow as stuck on my own for a lot.

I managed to stay in a group, we passed a load of riders on the the last lap.
