[Event] 947 Cycle Challenge 2016

[Long Wheel Base]

Anyone know if Racetec will be loading start times so we can do some start time stalking

Or just go to the spreadsheet that someone created and posted in one of the two 947 threads.

 

Edit: Hope this helps you out

Anyone interested in swapping start times? I got an 08:49 start, looking for something earlier...

earlier start times are earned... not given as a gift.

I have zero road seeding, this being my first road event.

 

Looking forward to my lunchtime start, and pulling lots of tannies to a PB of 6 hours.

Starting 9:26 LL - I updated the Hub start list.

 

 

Have not been focused. I am under no misconceptions about doing a good time.

 

Going for the experience more than anything else.

Last year I was new to road events, and got a *** start of 08H30 or something.

This year 06H50. Muuuccchhh better.

[FHB]

I am in group MM, 9:32. Focused more on training and MTB, did not do races. However, still aiming for 4hrs, next year will be better.

 

Gotta do some road races so that I can get a better seeding next year. I will see some of you guys there at the end bunches...

[BouncingBrain]

For those riding in D group.

 

Is there anyone who's aiming to ride a 2:50 or so.

Around 33 to 34 kmh avg speed?

Is this event dying a slow death normally, this thread will have thousands of posts.

6 years ago I started in "PP"...it was the LAST group and Wackhead still made a note of that, we were indeed the last group out LOL...

 

Only started cycling 6 weeks before the race (got a late entry substitution from someone) - was also my FIRST ever cycling race - the route was still on the N14 (I miss that, because long small-ish up and down hills are my strongest point) -  was very surprised to have a finish time of 3h39.

 

I was only 39th in the PP group, so there were a few racing snakes that started with us.

 

6 years on I would not want to miss even ONE year and totally love the race...just go out and enjoy it and good luck with the 4 hour bench mark...you might even do better than you think.

[Pikey]

I see there quite a few hubbers in E & F . Is anyone interested in trying to get a small group together from those batches and aiming for a realistic time?

 

If there's enough of us we wouldn't necessarily have to worry about the other guys & gals in our group if we get dropped from them .

 

Just a thought not much time left,but would rather have some allies than foe's trying to drop me.

 

Edit: even D & E & F ? I suppose all defendant on who wants what for the race....time wise that is .

I had very close to the 3hr mark in my mind but not sure if doable.
