The lack of triathlon content in this blog is rather worrying! Recent posts have all been about time trials, as that is all I am doing. Maybe I should change the name of the blog? I was thinking of 53/11? Or ‘Time to Trial’? Or The trials of Time?
Anyway, to continue a theme, I raced at the evening club TT last Wednesday. Although it was blustery, the weird course that we used produced a number of PBs for many people – me included! I rode 22:54. My first time under 23 mins on this course and a time that I thought was beyond my capabilities! It wasn’t enough to win overall though! Pete Galpin, fresh from his 9:16 at Ironman Austria clocked 22:52 (another PB!). However, the most impressive PB of the night must go to Paul Fullalove (Raf Triathlete). He knocked a whopping 1:46 off his best to clock 24:05! He has either been blagging and not trying hard or those Mavic Cosmic Carbonne wheels I sold him have motors in them! A great ride.
My Specialized should be ready to rock next week. The disc conversion kit should be at Grafham Cycles and a new stem also. Can’t wait to ride it in anger. . . GRRRRRR!
Here is a pic of Hutch riding my bike!

A new bike?
That's why I didn't name my blog anything to do with Tri as what happens when you're not doing it anymore?
Yes mate. I have a Specialized Transition Comp. A world apart from your Italian nostalgia! I just love TT bikes.
