Title: 23.08.15 - REALTEAM 25 mile TT Sunday
Post by: ron b on August 21, 2015, 08:55:15 AM

Big field for this event with some of the countries top riders taking part, weather does not look too good, but same for everyone. Steven is trying for number "99" under the hour, good luck, there's no rush, plenty of riders a little older than you.

That may be true but I'm getting slower with age!  Don't mind the rain ( apart from the fact that I have to take it easy on the roundabouts on my 19m slick tubulars!), but need the wind in the right direction..

Looking at the CTT site, conditions weren't that great but quite a few PBs reported

Overnight my time has slipped to 57:19!   I finished third from last and every rider was inside the hour!

Hayley Simmonds must have been close to the women's competition record...

Nice ride Steven!  Is this your fastest this season?  For your information - The Womens Competition record ( On this course) is 50-01 by Julia Shaw in 2011.  Well done, Norman.
