I see we are starting +-10mins after you guys. How about some odds on when or if we will ever catch you ?

 

Age of our team members - 30,30,42,43,43,49,50,48,42,42,47&45

 

Not taking any chances with those diesel motors over 189km with that experience, its a matter of when not if!! :P

Speaking of neutral - I am trying to get my head around the road works section from Montagu to Ashton - 12km @ max 30km/h speed limit - semi neutral zone (i.e. over 30km/h is deemed to be racing). 

That leads directly to the 30 minute neutral stop @ Ashton.

So, is that like an hour of chilling in the middle of the course?

Erm, its the perfect oppertunity to drop everybody in your team... let them catch up.

The longer they take the less time they have to rest!!!

Oh how I wish I was at that level of fitness, but alas, this year has been a year of "other stuff". Fun yes, exciting yes, good yes, but it does not lead to the steel legs, lungs and backside you need for the DC. (Or, if i want to make it sound a bit better, I should say that I "peaked a bit early".) Enjoy y'all!

I would prefer them sitting on the front at 400w pulling us to a top20, but I'll settle for pom poms ;)

Does this mean the DC this year is only effectively going to be timed over 190km's if 12km's is in a neutral zone? Times therefore should be a whole lot faster this year or are we still on the clock through the neutral zone?
