A good turnout for a cold dull/wet windy evening.
Well done Gary - I wish I had fat legs so I could ride as fast as you

Thanks to Harry for marshalling, Brian for pushing off and Maggie for helping with the timekeeping

Thanks Dave et al for organising. Well done Gary.

Well done all, some real stand out times there from Gary Mac & Gavin Giles.

Damn it Gary I'm going to have to get myself one of those triple chainring thingys.
Really well done congratulations.

You might want to check my time....I thought it was 23.41, although I was slightly delirious by the end!! (no.12)

Decent conditions considering how it was looking at 4/5 o'clock...
Thanks to all the marshals / organisers - good job done by all

Well done guys. Gary in particular that's brilliant.

Another TT done, good day guys, congrats to everyone who took part!

Gavin you were right, I'm sorry about that. I've corrected it now

Dave

I think whoever arranged for the rain to stop for an hour from about 6:30 should be congratulated

Is there any points available for riding the course solo in the day due to not being able to make it on the night?

I know this is really cheeky but worth a shot!

Nice one, Gary.

That would be a bit of a slippery slope. Conditions might have been different, the segment on Strava doesn't match the course exactly, etc. Speaking of which, there was someone on BikeRadar the other day talking about their 10-mile time trial times to date, and it turned out that they had all been set on a turbo trainer in their garage.

Yea I know, but thought id be cheeky. To be honest my average was quicker than last week but the strava segment showed I was slower.

Was only after some points, not bothered about time.

Some good times last night though. Hopefully I will be able to make all the other ones this year, apart from 7th September, its my wedding anniversary and if I ride could well be my last!!

Cheers for the vouchers Laurence

Well done, particularly Gary.

Big PB by Gary secured max h'cap points for the fourth time running. Elfyn has a flying time but restricted to base as new rider. All the times pretty close.
