Gobi - yes I was just letting them get on with it really but bemused that anyone was bothered about me doing my own thing. Nice and steady power/HR through the ride :-)

LindsD - yes that was my reaction but I typed a polite question asking what it meant instead! Also a bit puzzled at the use of blob given its alternative (and preceding) slang meaning of menstruation.

I join the Herd sometimes and they seem to be quite good

Cycling speak is a funny thing isn't it :¬)

19:00 Tritalk.

Looking at the entries these TTTs seem to have really caught on, think Zwift may well improve the format as it's a bit of a faff to sort and the start will be awkward for me as the watter goes to sleep but I can;t pedal otherwise I start early and get DQ'd.

Course has 3 tidy little lumps in.

*must remember to swap out from the TT bike*

I've no idea we're mainly Bs with an A* to do most of the pulling....leader said enter C so there we are.

I'm not sure they are different grades as such since the top 11 from each of A B C and D go to the Premier League event the following week.

It would be better if each was graded and you worked your way up as a team based on performances. But, as noted, this seems to be a fairly new thing that's kind of been adapted and limitations are worked around but its really caught on and I'd bet they're working on a more seemless way of doing it.

Tron day?
