I’m just wondering if anyone else got a bag of split peas and a bag of rice in their “race pack”? 

The peas and rice have me absolutely howling

 

at least you dont need to pop into the supermarket for the "Basics"

Maybe they are trying a similar Balance of Performance system to motor racing? 

Oh, you look fast....here are some extra saturated fats for you

my boss is in 1A i'm in 1B, i need to make Monday morning as awkward as possible...

Many years ago, after completing my articles and supposedly receiving a salary increase, my employer asked me to ride with him on the Saterday….gave myself a increase on the road.

What's the chances of 1B catching 1A🤔

It depends on how pissed off the front riders in B are for not making the A cut. Also, with all the pre-A & B groups, there's an overlap in seeding indices between the two. What is certain, the front B pack will collect many A bunch stragglers just for them to fall off again, of course. If front B catches front A, all hell breaks loose or freezes over.

Snap!

I handed the packet to my local homeless shelter. I'd be very happy to forego the goodie bag completely if PnP donated all this stuff instead.

Until recently it was like a 1min and later 2min gaps between 1A and 1B, at 1 point 1B would start in their lane before all the 1A guys even crossed the timing mats. Which made it a certainty that groups would combine in 1 big mass.

I think with the 5min (?) gap its less likely that the groups will merge unless 1A is REALLY lazy. Guess the one benefit of not having 30K+ starters anymore

Once again I'd just like to make my annual appeal to all you other 1B Muppets ... Let's be reasonable up to the top of hospital bend. We get the engines running smoothly before we smash it yes?
