I'll be coming along and happy to 'captain' the second string!

Target is a '53' which is enough to prevent the fast group catching us!
Everyone I've ridden with in pacers and amblers can do this, just need a bit of practice

I'll be there too. I was hoping for a slow group not a 53!  :'(

Good 'B' team effort this evening, for the promised 53 minutes, all be it a long 53:40.
Five worked well together from the off, Dave W, Terry, Carl, Richard and myself. Dave in particular looking strong early on, with some long efforts into the wind.  ;D
Richard succumbed on the fifth lap and four continued with some steady pacing.
Keep this up and we'll be sub 50 in a few weeks.
See you next week!

Thanks all, great workout. First chain gang in a while for me and should hopefully hang on for longer next week. Pleased to come in on 59.01 for my 8 laps having done the final 4 solo.

It was a night of headwinds for most of the way which makes the time more impressive. We did a 50:02. I say 'we' but I took a back seat for the majority of the time...
