udxcob Posted March 7, 2011 Share I have done 5 official races and 2 unofficial (on bmx bikes) my best was in 1991 (2:52) two decades later (last year a 3:40) lets see what we can do this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trubie Posted March 7, 2011 Share Never had a good Argus - 3 outings thus far 1. 1990 - 3:362. 2009 - 3:453. 2010 - 3:46 So the year I was doing National Service still remains my fastest Maybe 2011 will see that elusive sub 3 finally??????? (Holding thumbs, holding thumbs) Won't be back soon if I achieve that......... just too expensive to be worth it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

janneman72 Posted March 7, 2011 Share This will be my 6th Argus, nearest was a 3:04 in 1997 but I stopped and helped my buddy who bonked 5km's before the end and missed my sub 3...So it's still haunting me, aiming for a sub 3 in 2012 though, not this year...

Guest Big H Posted March 7, 2011 Share We have done seven..... all on a tandem. Best was 4h16. I cannot see us now breaking the four hours ever. Left it too late. .......Correction - It is never to late to be what you want to be - Elliot Edited March 7, 2011 by Big H Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cat-i Posted March 7, 2011 Share 20 3/4. if all goes well, 21 this year times range everything from 3:21 (including a mechanical on suikerbossie, and a singlespeed with no freewheel from there) and 5:44 on a mountainbike with knobblies and a harry-potter broom that year that they stopped it 'cos it was too hot.

Ispeed_V Posted March 8, 2011 Share Done 3. Best time 3:02 way back in 1993 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pronutro Posted March 8, 2011 Share Never done one. Having lived far away, the effort for one race didn't make sense (unless you also take a holiday). Now that I am closer it's easier to say "let's do the Argus", so this year will be my first attempt. Hoping for a Sub 7. I know, I know. At least if you set the bar low enough you'll always achieve your goals. Now there's some breakfast cereal wisdom for you right there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
