    Cool pic. Should be faster with that kit though! 27 mph is my target on a road bike for a club 10 later!

    Terrain depending of course! But he certainly looks the part, as I'm sure you would being an F1 driver, they're fit guys.

    Cheers for the reminder - entered both, in TT bike category for a change. Legs starting to feel a bit better at long last so hoping I can get some half decent form together between now and then.

    I'd love to come and cheer you all on, but that's past my bed time.

    In for both on the TT category. Hopefully wearing an LFGSS skintsuit :D

    Not expecting to place anywhere good but I'd like to beat my own previous time!

    Find it funny reading back at OKGO contemplating giving TT a bit of a go cos he reckons he might be ok at it.

    Isn't he, like... World champion now?! :) pushing out 400W over ten miles?!

    Made me laugh too. From 'I might buy a TT bike' to 10th in the National Champs in 3 years.

    Not bad going.

    Rule #5 // Harden The Feck Up.
    Rule #9 // If you are out riding in bad weather, it means you are a badass. Period.
    Rule #12 // The correct number of bikes to own is n+1.
    Rule #42 // A bike race shall never be preceded with a swim and/or followed by a run.

    I could bring the Brompton, and providing only a few people pitch up, could win by default.
    Aren't you the current World Champion? That's not going to be good when it comes to handicapping time...

    If anyone still fancies riding the 10th July RPTT you can enter the waitlist on RiderHQ. We currently have 3 or 4 on waitlist and there are at least 8 spaces which will become free (probably more), so you will be almost certain of a place.

    Here's the link:

    I prefer 6th in the National 25 last year, sounds slightly better.

    I was seriously annoyed to have not done the last RP TT, but a close mate was getting married the previous day, I'd not missed one for 3 years! Luckily Pat from our club got the win to keep the streak going.

    I hope to be there this Sunday though.
