Sssshhhhh

Don't tell anyone, I think I'm going to try and go Iron distance again next year. Let's hope this time it goes a bit more to plan than last time :/ Biggest problem this year on reflection is not really having a goal other than to ride quick. And I had more shitty days that good ones and being shit in bad conditions just made things worse an pilled the pressure on.

Coming to the end of July and TT season is pretty much over for me now. I've focussed on bike only all year and I have to say the results are overall a bit disappointing. It's been a strange season with some great results mixed in with some awful ones. Consistently inconsistent has been the best way to describe it. Best race was a Wednesday night on F2D/10 where we got float conditions on a fairly slow course. 20.56 and within 30 secs of Ian, Rich & Nic was surprising and a springboard (I'd hoped to start narrowing the gap). Alas what's really been shown up this year is and even bigger gap between my performance when it's flat and fast against any time the road goes up hill or into the wind (or even worse, both)!
