Cheers all. The memories of the pain must wearing off quickly, I'm already plotting a sub 1h55 50 next year ;)

But surely the next step is sub 4 100? It's only twice what you did. You could even go a little slower.

Hah. No. ;) I don't have time to train for long distance at the moment, plus it would probably impact my top end power - priorities next year are faster 10s & 25s.

Thanks Ris, KQwerty. 1 last TT this coming Saturday, and then a couple of weeks of just riding for the sake of it, when I feel like it, before I ease back into intervals again. I've got big plans for next year, so going to have to embrace the turbo over the next 6 months or so!

After allegations of cheating, death threats, and other assorted scandal (none of which to do with me!) the results for this have come out now. I just about snuck into the top 75%. Not bad! Needed to find about 4m40s to have been in the top half, which pretty much aligns with my 50 goal time for next year.

Well done. As it was quite a stacked field.

Allegations? Or now accepted? Thought the results weren't coming out until it was sorted.

What was the beef? Thread was removed from TTF.

Pass. As Ewan says, all mention of it has been pulled from TTF.
