We are probably all drivers. Aren't you just a little bit frustrated by ever increasing 30mph or 40mph restrictions, speed cameras, points on licenses and having to drive ever so slowly and carefully...
... Don't you just wish you could have the chance to go flat out ... As fast as you can?
Well, this is the thrill that TTs are all about. We have all have nice machines - or, at least, aspire to owning them. And the sheer buzz of just racing them as fast as you can - just to see how fast you can go, is great. A real buzz.
Part of your membership fees go to paying for the facility for you to be able to do these. Sure, there are turn up and ride events, but these are hardly ever further than 10 miles. And the real test is seeing how far you can get in a hour. Just you and the machine.
It's a facility that, as far as I know, only three of us - myself, Jonathon.e and Sir Conehead have used. As such, it seems a bit of an indulgence.
But look at the fun we have. It's all Sir CH actually wants to do. It's more fun than a running race and a swIm. And, possibly, more stimulating than a Tri.
So: who wants to join in the fun?
If you do, then what are the barriers?
Let me know, and I will see if I can help
If you don't want a go, but have dropped 2k on a TT bike then.. Well..
