Perfectly explained Richard. Simon Dighton works all this out. He does exercise some discretion if courses are similar over the same distance. So for example you may consistently do middling 23min 10s. If you then ride a club 10 on a course you haven't got a time for but is similar to most other 10 ...

Patch

Dont worry Keri I have altered it.

Patch

A tremendous turnout tonight. Thank you every one.

Patch

I'll agree with that one Alan pro 4 endurance are excellent

Patch

I'm driving broom wagon general rescue service. If your riding don't worry about not being able to get back if you **flat** I'll find you. If any marshals need a lift out there let me know bear in mind I'm going out early so I'm there at the beginning so it'll be an early pick up. If riders are stuc...

Saturday 19th April 12 miles.

It's round 3 of the club time trials. Weather looks to be good. See you guys and girls out there.

Patch

I'm driving broom wagon/support/photography Dave already spoke to john about my role.

Patch

Of course George. They are for everybody's use. If you want bigger file just email and I will send it back.

Patch

Here are todays piccys. Sorry Martin while sitting in the car at finish I managed to turn off my auto focus. Which meant I didnt get you at the finish. Thanks Andy for timekeeping. Well done folks on a bit of a hard day I suspect.

Patch

The road works have gone we are good to go. The country 20 is at 2pm on Saturday. See you all there.

If your new to this course take a little time to familiarise yourself with it. Many have gone wrong in the past.

Looks ok Simon. A couple of the course numbers are wrong though the K8/10 and K34/10D should both be K34/10 and the K34/6G is now K37/6G. Not sure that it matters though.
Thanks for putting this together should help people work out what they need to do and when.

Patch

Op went well back home now. Pretty sore at mo though so won't be able to check out course for a few days but it sounds as if it'll be ok. Which is good for Keri as she needs to set a slow time

Patch

That sounds great Martin thanks for that. I have my op today so won't be v mobile next week might need someone to go check it out if your out that way

Patch

The 20 mile tt on Saturday 5th of April on the k32/20. According to Worcestershire council the road closure in Crowle is still there and will be until the end of April. Those who did the sunrise/snowdrop will have ridden through it. If it is still the same as it was then we won't be able to hold the...

Patch

Well done everyone. Can't say it upset me too much not to be riding today. The pictures are at www.chudson.co.uk/hilly6 Can I say especially well done to Patrick I think he did great and I'm sorry if you got sent the wrong way. If you hadn't I've calculated that you would have done 28.07. I think it...

Patch

I'll echo that Thomson seatposts are the business.

Patch

That's exactly the stuff we use Phil.

Patch

If their doing it under warranty then it's not costing. Just get another one and be careful how you tighten it up. Use proper carbon grip when you put it in and no more than 4nm. Sometimes carbon posts slip at the proper torque when people use ordinary grease so they end up tightening it more :-( Al...

First club time trial of the year. 6 miles round a hilly little circuit http://www.midlanddc.org.uk/courses?are ... rse=K37/6G

Starts at 2pm. If you haven't ridden a time trial yet come on out and have a go.

Andy is time keeping and I'll be pushing off. See you there.

Patch

Andy it is my intention to follow your procedure on Saturday. Both me and Dave have watches I'll be bringing mine also. See you on Saturday.

Patch

We only stock the long ones now. So we always use long ones on cantilevers.

Patch

Yep the tyre on the left has had its day.

Patch

I see this quite a lot. Alan is sort of right. The top of your seat tube/clamp is pinching inwards and squeezing the seat post. It's a case of tolerances being at the loose end so although seatpost is right size it's still pinching just a bit. I suspect whatever carbon seatpost you put in here the s...

Patch

Dave can I add a large curry sauce to order please

Patch

Two lots of fish and chips please Dave. Oh and a lge portion of mushy peas.

Patch

I'd go for hand builts for ease of repair etc but it's hard to build a pair for anything like the price of the khamsins. If I was building some for myself I'd go open pros on hope. Thing about hand builts is the hubs are reusable so when you wear the rim out you can rebuild it. The factory wheels ar...

Patch

Nope I have an adapter doesn't work.

Ok Ed will do

Hi Jane me and Keri have paid our deposit via the club as a money exchange.

Patch

It will be interesting to see how spec respond to this. Incredible that they don't appear to have anyone keeping on top of this sort of thing, as nothing has come out of @iamspecialised all weekend. Cafe Roubaix will have done alright out of it all though. They probably have the best known bike shop...

Patch

Yes Simon for the purposes of the handicap competition. While we are on that subject I take it you are happy to carry on doing the handicap.

Unless anyone has any other suggestions I am proposing this as our 2014 club time trial calendar. There is a bit of time left yet before I have to submit this to District Council but id like to get it in before the end of November.

Two places for Keri and myself please.
