Has any one rode a 50 mile TT this year?

Hi Paul

Don’t worry would love to see you Wednesday evening , good call zipp 404 popular wheel and 60mm deep.

I will amend the rules to 60mm . I don’t agree with 90mm deep , the whole idea of a road bike event should be to even things up.

Thanks for your feedback

George

So you can run a better closer ratio rear cassette without the stupid large jumps of a fry pan cassette.
