What, no Norwood Paragon or Bec CC?
Scaredycats

Looks like we're in with a good chance of a team prize, which is just as well because my wine cellar is a bit depleted at the moment.

BTW
can anyone take my TT bike out to the 10 and 25 this weekend so that I can ride my road bike as it is a tad more comfortable

Is there anyone off near me both days by coincidence Jon?

[Andrew G]

Ride your road bike in the events and go for the no tri-bar prize, they're only early Sporting ones so not going to be worrying your PBs .

Oh, and make sure you eat properly and leave enough time to get there for the 25. I hear someone, who should've known better, didn't last year and turned in to a bit of a mess on their way round.

[Ivor]

Drove around the 10 and 25 this weekend, had really meant to ride around them but ran out of time.

It had been raining and the 10 had a fair few tricky places, with gravel washed out onto the line around corners and many waterfilled potholes and slippy (uneven) manhole covers. Not confident of trying to ride that route flat out. Especially with my current respect for corners and hard cold tarmac.

On the other hand the 25 looks a really good clean route, the only dicey bit is the first single carriage part up the A24 which looks a bit hairy in traffic.

[quote="orv"]PS when's the deadline for the sccu25 on the 20th? Will I have time to get my times from the 5th/6th and them send in the form?

Looks like I'm a top seed on a zero number - no pressure then
And George on a 7 is definitely a ringer.

Paul - I reckon I can give your bike a lift as long as it's a good passenger and doesn't get car sick or anything.

[Andrew G]

From memory Ivor the small first loop has some dodgy bits on the 10 course, but the bigger loop was okay. I also don't recall seeing any cars apart from on the A29 (although it was a morning start last year) so think I rode in the middle of the lane on the first loop.
