Newbury RC 10 Mile TT

Today, I won my first race of the year. It was a 10 mile TT. My time was 22.37. Second place was Peter Weir 22.43 and Ian Greenstreet of Newbury RC came third in 22.45

The course H10/3 is fairly  new and this was the first open event, so maybe I can claim a course record :)

Next year, the 2009 10 mile TT  Championship will be held on this course. It is not quick, becuase it is undulating, with one sharp climb in the middle. It’s not really a proper climb, but, when your timetrialling it definitely knocks you out of your rhythmn.

Apart from the slowness of the course, it is actually quite good course. Traffic is light, road is wide, surface is smooth, there is only one roundabout at the turn. I will enter next year’s national 10 mile TT championship and see how I get on.

Anyway, it’s just nice to be cycling with great weather we are having here in the UK.

This brings to an end the time trial season. Now, it is just the hill climb season!
