Jean-Jay Posted September 13, 2006 Share I thought it was tonight  Pity  But it's cool, see you next week at killareny colonel.I see Kilo is not racing this weekend at Red Hill. It seems I am the only poor soul going to give it a go on Red Hill. Wish you guys were gonna be there to share in the pain  Anyway, colonel enjoy your day, chat with you later ciao for now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean-Jay Posted September 13, 2006 Share 20th...come hide behind fatty  Keeping up with you these days is very hard fatty, you are tooooo quick for tooSlow (me)  I am gonna give scratch group a go on the 20th just to see if i can hack it.If not i will go back to riding the second group. I dont want to start riding in the second group and get stuck riding in it. If i dont try scratch, i never will. Lets hope it goes well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilo Master Posted September 13, 2006 Share I see Kilo is not racing this weekend at Red Hill.  But it is not for a lack of training. I got home from work last night at 10 to 10, pulled out the bike and went for an hour pedal around (and around and around....) my neighbourhood.

Velouria Posted September 13, 2006 Share Very brave tooHot!!!! - I try the scratch group week in and week out - sometimes I make 5 or six laps, other times I barely make 2... and yet I keep coming back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BikeMax Posted September 14, 2006 Share 20th...come hide behind fatty  Keeping up with you these days is very hard fatty' date=' you are tooooo quick for tooSlow (me)  I am gonna give scratch group a go on the 20th just to see if i can hack it.If not i will go back to riding the second group. I dont want to start riding in the second group and get stuck riding in it. If i dont try scratch, i never will. Lets hope it goes well [/quote']  Good luck - interestingly although scratch is harder, it is a very different ride - lots more peaks and troughs which if you can survive means you may well stay in - +1 is often a more concerted and smoother but harder effort - whenever I have dropped doen to +1 for an "easier" ride it has often not worked out that way and I end up working just as hard and with a higher average power. See you on that climb on Sunday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedal Posted September 17, 2006 Share Cape Hubbers.... The wind had a good practice run this past Wednesday.... just warming up for Marius and the 20th.....  Great to see the interest, and the fact that TooHot is aiming for scratch.... just come back each week, and you will win the series.... the harder you train, the luckier you get.... Check you all on 20th..... windy or not we race....pedal2006-09-17 12:15:32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you are right about the +1 group, it is definately smoother and also very hard. I think i might reconsider the scratch group and ride the +1. Sorry i missed the race today, the rain kinda put me off (i know i chickened out) . How was the climb? I reckon I would have been way off the back as usual had i ridden so maybe it for the best that I didn't.  Anyway see you at Killarney on Wednesday.   Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
