[quote]Well done Adam, get up Box Hill in under 6"30 and you will be a complete rider.
That was the challenge yesterday morning, a quick solo training ride was alls i had time for yesterday before making my debut at the new wembley stadium
So i hit the bottom, and straight into traffic, some Serpentine CC (whoever they are!?) right in my way, managed to overtake about 20 guys before the first hairpin, which just about nullifies my rolling start i reckon...
the second drag seemed to go quick, even had to ease a little going round the second hairpin, past yet more riders. I was flying, a couple of guys tried to hold my wheel, but no, no chance! Then it hit me, half way to the 3rd hairpin my legs were screaming. Got to the last hairpin, and dug in, one last effort...
to stop the clock on...
6m18s.
Once again, not bad for the 'prima donna' huh!? LOL
Reckon i could go quicker though, id been giving it some the whole ride before hand so wasn't exactly fresh. But sub 6.30 will do for me
