Title: Cwmcarn R25/7 TT
Post by: Rob Jones on August 09, 2014, 07:33:21 PM

Me, Norman and Andy today on the Usk-Monmouth-Usk course

Breezy to say the least though it did ease for me towards the end of the ride. From the turn to the closed services on the summit was really tough going...speed below 20mph at times! Not a PB or even CB for me, but was quite pleased with 56:10 given conditions. Luke Dix was leading with a long 50 as I left. Kieron a DNS so reckon that might have done it. 

Norman was a DNS. I waited quite a while for Andy S as thought he may PB but managed to miss him. How did you get on Andy?

Was always going to be a PB today cos it was  my first 25, so very happy with a  57:01, would have been happier with a 56:59 mind! Not so happy to bump into my lady boss covered in snot and wearing a skin suit, in for some stick at work I think.

Amazing time Andy, especially given it was your 1st 25. You are flying mate

Great ride Andy-I can remember weighing up the aerodynamic inefficiency of blowing my nose against the comfort of doing so and trying to do so without using my hands with a similar result.
