I frikkin love to hate this race.

 

I've done it 3 times and finished absolutely smashed every time.

 

@dangle - agreed on the bigger gear - you were spinning like a looney when I saw you!

 

One day I will crack 4 hours for this race - one day!!!!!

If you can crack 4 hours on your SS I will add you to my hall of fame and demand your autograph :D

 

Dana just missed the 4 hour mark last year...Jules by 10ish minutes if memory serves.

 

Me - I'll be using my geared bike :D

If I can just crack 5 hours on a geared bike I'll be happy. I suffer so much at the cruise I can't even crack a joke smiley19.gif

I couldn't close in on Jules and Dana, they were riding 40's plus , I was on a 32, who knows, I am busy getting over some oink flu and then hopefully pick up some form.

Everyone I know has been crazy sick this year - my 4 hour aspirations ended after 3 months of colds, flu, ear infections, chest infections, oink flu and general misery.

 

I may be good again by October - here's hoping...

 

Good luck with the 4 hour quest!!!

Yup I seriously lost my sense of humour last year - krikey it was hot. Water in water bottle too hot to drink. After that race I stopped using GUI Gels, make me feel so yuk!

Yes the rain will have made a difference, at least less dust and green things up a bit. But could still be a scorcher on Sat.

 

I am also still battling a bit of flu: going to have to be careful not to push my immune system to hard. I will be happy to do in under 6.

 

Here's a press release about the contenders
