Just got in before it tipped down here too. Zwifted. Accidentally went up Fox Hill, then similarly tried to outsprint someone for the line from the brow of the hill. It went to helicopter view so don't know who won but suspect it was him. Hit 422W though so that was nice.

Can anyone explain why it takes me the same length of time to swim 800m at MT's as 1500m at Heron?

Thicker water at Merchants, on account of its breeding. Plus everyone knows it’s all downhill at Heron. In fact, it’s so downhill it’s like an Escher engraving.

Morning all,
Enjoy day two of your course Angus and good luck to TRO and Gobi with the Pretzel race today.
Rest day on Thursday and an endurance ride yesterday I've got some intervals to look forward to this morning.

Pretzel fun was had. In lead group to the first KOM then race exploded and I went backwards with only 4.5w/kg. Ground up and found myself in no man’s land for the descent, 47th overall.
Probably had the most fun for the next hour chasing down riders. As we collected more riders the group became stronger and we hauled in more. Hit KOM 2 nestled in a group of 7, went with the 4 dropping 3 then I fell off the 4 into no man’s land.
After the descent about 6 miles to go, managed to get one of the 3 ahead with a mile to go, ended 31st, 6th B with a ride of around 200 TSS and 250w NP.
Go by going well way up the road from me but had a crash....
