    Nothing special I did 7hr 37min. I went without any training or long rides in the legs. I just wanted to enjoy it.

    I will try to copy the link of the video diary I did on the day... I put it together last week.

    I did the Reading Sportive last Sunday. 190km 3000m climbed and came in with the quickest time- 6hr 08. Pretty happy with that considering the windy/rainy day.

    Has there ever been a proper hill climb event held up Box Hill with elite cyclists in attendance? Just wondering how fast a really top cyclist would get up there. Based on Contador's climbing rate yesterday in the Tour, I reckon he could get up Box Hill in around 4 minutes, quite possibly slightly under rather than over.

    I think they use it in a Surrey League stage race (Army 3 dayer?), but it's a bit shorter.
    FCN 2-4.

    "What happens when the hammer goes down, kids?"
    "It stays down, Daddy."
    "Exactly."

    Improved from 7:39 to 7:10. Set off a lot more aggressively and stayed out of the saddle most of the way up whereas I was in the saddle all the way when I did 7:39. Power output was higher at 310W this time vs 292W last time, and I weigh 2.3kg less.

    A bit of inter-Mo competition there Nick? ;-) Given that you beat me on the FW by 15 minutes, I'd say you should be able to beat me up BH.

    I did my last PB with 90km in the legs, so I reckon there's a sub-6:30 in the ole pins yet.
    Your first prediction has come true. By 3s (and no I wasn't pacing myself for 6:41, just trying to get my HR up).
    So now for your second prediction? My 6:38 was after an easier ride than usual to that point, so I'm much closer to potential.

    Wow, moved up from 8.32 to 7.37. Lovely conditions for it up there with a nice tailwind on the long straight. Thought id go faster after putting new tyres on but really surprised and happy with that

    P.S. You going to the 'Mo social on Thursday Nick?

    Sounds like useful training.
    just read of someone who did 10 ascents in 22hours....
    I had another go yesterday after a killer Dynamo ride and was 2 mins slower for equal pain.
    Yes, should be at the social, God willing.

    First time for a while, surprised to go under 8 minutes (just).
  • First timed run, fast ride down from Kingston... Did it twice. Once supposedly going easy to get a feel for it. This soon went out the window. Went over top in 6.30. Back down for a GOOD GO after a little rest. 30 seconds quicker second time.

    Maybe could go quicker, maybe not.... Thanks to my new club KWs for showing around the surrey lanes... I dont get lost anymore... :lol:

  • The user and all related content has been deleted.
  • Hi all... For the keen eyed amongst you I havnt just dropped 10kgs, just put it in wrong on older post... :lol: Very hard... Keep burning out on the first bit going past car park. Guess must be steeper gradient at that point. Rest is nice and spinny. Keeping cadence high works for me.

    wish I could sprint the last bit but body just wants to give up and minds not far behind.

    Good weather and only 30miles in the legs before I hit this as hard as I could- I was out of the saddle more than I was in it... well, thats what it felt like. I passed a few cyclists and heard a few "what the f...." made me smile.
    I can almost fully clear the speed bumps now with a bunnyhop, though I better not get in to bad habits.. I'm riding an 808/404 combo :wink:

    This weather is very welcome. Hope your all enoying it!! Not over this way for a while now- just too busy, question is, can I hold or keep my form for much longer?

    Cheers

    Ah, so that's why I'm so far behind! I'm not riding aero wheels! What bike?

    Awesome time, when you going to go sub 5 minute?

  • 5.08 are you kidding me.... nearly 30kph average :shock: like 600watts (I guess)

    Hats off to you...

  • haha... I only ride on them so people hear me coming and move out of the way... most expect a car :lol:

    Jibberjim I'm riding on a '09 look 595/record. Had the same frame since 06 (received a new frame under warranty this year) New white paint job looks great!! Rides fantastic- very responsive.

    SpeedBoy, not sure, When I come over next I'll put the powertap on the back and tell you. I still don't know what speed I'm doing- I've got no speedo (overrated) I just time myself...

    I'm pretty busy racing now, I doubt I'll be over there until the season finishes... sub 5 :oops:
    8 seconds is a looong way at that speed... maybe if I get a friend to pace me up the first half (without drafting!) then it could be possible.

    You guys should cycle over Henley way into the chilterns.... Aston hill, takes you up to stokenchurch is a very similar distance and gradient, much nice than box!!!

    Knocked almost 30sec off my time, but a bit hollow as I sat on wheels and had nothing to contribute. Still happy with the time, and looking to shave a bit more off in the next few weeks.

    I'm pretty sure I've been down that hill and it did strike me as very Boxhill-like. Next time I'll plan my route to go up it. What's a good time to beat? :D
