Rode my first time trial on Sunday. I'm not really up to cycling club standard yet, but felt like giving it a go. Here's the results. It was a 2 mile uphill time trial.
"end of " Summer Hill Climb
STRONACHIE CLIMB
Sunday 6th September 2009
What a wet horrible Sunday morning for the 9 brave souls on the inaugural End of Summer Hill Climb.
Although there was no rain the weather was damp and overcast. There was plenty of standing water on the roads on the ride to the start of the climb and the road grit from last week’s heavy rains was soon picked up on the chain and rims. A 10 to 15 mph WSW wind made things interesting but overall it was slightly with us coming over the left shoulder.
Well done to Peter for a blistering performance and putting down the course record.
Let's make it sub 8 – Platinum standard, sub 9 – Gold standard, sub 10 Silver standard, sub 11 Bronze standard.
The climb up to Stronachie is very pleasant and none too steep. It was also very quiet on a Sunday morning with only one or two cars using the road at the same time as riders climbing.
Well done to all who took part and special thanks to Roddy for starting riders off on their minute slots.
