LongDonkey Posted February 28, 2014 Share Does anyone have the timesheet where it states if you want to ride x amount of hours, you have to reach certain stages on the route by x time? Can't find it on their website. Thanx! Split time calculator is on the pull down menu on web Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a false flat. Slightly uphill after the BP garage on the left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it's not.You work quite hard to keep the pace up on that stretch. Sometimes too hard, so that the legs are a bit tired by the time you get to that little kicker at foot of "Little Chappies". You then struggle up the little climb past the "toll booth". It catches you out because the speed is quite high / pedaling a bit easier in that little dip before the climb.The next moment your'e into the climb and not ready for it. Wrong gears/dead wheel infront of you, and off goes the bunch. Edited February 28, 2014 by Wannabe Capricorn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found that their times are based on a zero wind situation performed by someone a Suzuki 500, not an actual cyclist. But this being my second Argus i should be able to do a couple of checks on the calculator Wannabe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Organic Posted February 28, 2014 Share Maybe I'm having a very blonde moment here. Mine won't work. It's a protected worksheet, and asks for a password? If you have OpenOffice, open it with that. Select Tools->Protect Document->Sheet (to untick the 'Sheet' option). Then you should be able to fill in the yellow blocks. Micky Mouse 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
