    In my youth there was a bloke in my club doing 22minute 10s on a knobbly mtb. He was a low 19min man on his full TT rig. Nails

    This guy was drafting me last night from Roehampton Gate to the top of Broomfield Hill - when my chain fell off. D'oh! Strong as an ox, he was. He even said thanks for the ride. :)
