Well done to everyone who took part in activiities this w/e.

I assume all the 100 milers made it. How did you get on?

The bike race (Sun am) was a bit chilly with a very slight head wind for the return leg. And with a few colds etc there were a few absent but was enjoyed by all (I think) and we had a few supported come out to watch (Steve Raff, Derek and Rachel). And the race not being enough for Maggie and Mike H they cycled 25+ miles to get to Castle Combe to watch the Duathlon where it was somewhat warmer but windier.

[glow=red,2,300]25 TT results:[/glow]Jer/Chris 1.08.23
Marcus 1.13.30
Mike H 1.17.10
Philippa 1.25.01
Maggie/Jenny 1.32.00


A reasonable turn out for the duathlon with Andy and Maggie's son (David) competing in the kids event. Andy B managed to leave his timing chip in the car! Was good to see the new kit.

Photos posted on facebook on the KIT site and I will put them on the website when results are out and could add reports if anyone wants to write one .

Race report windy but not as much as November.

Late starting as waiting for children and youth to finish it was good seeing them out competing.

Thought I did first run under 15 Min's but was 15.5 that was OK.

T1 OK as used TT helmet for first time

Out on the bike windy but not as much as November was going about 18 mile an hour going up slight hill but only 30.7 by pit lane.
Was OK though as going 20 seconds faster a lap than in November. 3rd or 4th lap I lost a contact lens bit strange at first but that was not going to stop me.

T2 not on results yet OK but calf's started to cramp

2nd run OK just hung in tried to wind it up with 1/4 a lap to go came in 17.5 Min's with T2

Overall time just under an hour so happy.
Philippa said after that she saw me pass her but noted my cadence was slow Probable 60RPM will have to concentrate to keep it at between 80 - 100 for next time
