Quite a few to cheer on -
Should be a good event with some very good times.  Looking out for 120 in the main field

Look forward to seeing the results tomorrow.

Details still to be verified.........but............so far

Fastest man confirmed as Marcin.  Provisional time initially 44.09, then amended to 44.04.

New 25 record.  I believe the previous was 44.20

Bit disappointing-I thought he'd manage a 43 after yesterday!

He's been around for a while then - I think he won the Betty Pharoah elite race with a solo win about 7 years ago...but until he smashed the 10 record the other day I never really heard of him as a time triallist! The pic I saw of the 10 is about the most aero looking position on a bike I've ever seen.

Well you do like to test me, Tom

Not set in stone.......

Alex Dowset did a 44:29 on one of the London courses in May this year.  Marcin did a 45:29 in August.  Not faster than Alex, but 3 mins faster than second place in that event.
