We a mixed team starting at around 06:15.. I'm just looking to have my first beer before 14:00. Think that's more or less a 6hr30min target

 

 

ditto, hopefully sooner but some teamies are already asking for Covid relief from time targets

Some tips for 1st time DC riders? Riding with a fairly strong team

Don't be afraid to take shorter turns till you're warmed up and are feeling comfortable.

Drink enough. It's going to be a long hot day.

the first 65km are tough. As is the last 44.

the bits in the middle are easy and you can expend too much.

Pace yourself conservatively

We are off at 06h49, so you early birds spare a thought for us when we are pedalling in the midday heat and you are enjoying a cold one! Our team has varying strengths, two strong riders training for the Epic, a few mid strength Mammils and three hot shot tri-athletes training for Iron man next year. Should be interesting holding onto these buggers. Hoping to better our 07h02 time from last year!
