He started 3 minutes behind me. He recognised me at the start and approached me. I told him I shot his disappearing back a flight look after the smoked me on that hill. Seems a friendly chap. It's a trek emonda with a booster battery. Reckons he can get 250 plus km if he nurses it in eco. This means I'll have to get him on the 36one for my revenge. He did say he was going full turbo sport mode for the TT and doubted he'd catch me. Funny joke I told him. Sure enough he cruised by at the 11km mark with enough puff to shout out a smiling "apology". I could tell he had no idea of what the ride needed from non assisted legs. Still I don't know his story and he was having a good time and seemed to regard the big stage coming up as a challenge so .... More power to him. I see from my Strava that Christiaan j v r smoked him so there's that. Skubarra, gerriemtb and ChrisF 3

SL7 Posted March 4, 2022 Posted March 4, 2022 Fun day in the saddle. ITT always start very hard for me, and then I settle in and it becomes a matter of keeping the wattage. Don't know yet how I did in the 50 plus group, so waiting for the results.

Mamil Posted March 6, 2022 Posted March 6, 2022 That was proper fun and instructive too. Learned a few things about nutrition. Next is 36one. Frightened mamil. Wayne pudding Mol 1
