Celery diet til the weekend then. No beer. Sorry
How much climbing in that?
PS - I have a 1:17:29 on a road bike (PX RT-58 built for comfort - 25mm tyres and all) if you want a 16st type's time to target. You've met me. I'm not fit.
climbing

you're never 16st/102Kg are you?
Yep. I was 17st7 at one time. Thighs like tree trunks though.
Ha ha! Only ******* nailed it! Tweaked the contact points a bit (dropped the post a touch, tilted the saddle nose down, thanks TiRed) and was really comfortable all the way round.
Fuelled properly in the morning, warmed up and got my gel and electrolytes intake pretty much spot on.
Thrashed out a 1:13:35 between the transitions (so a little less than that for the 40km on road time). Bloody ace! And a huge dent into Monday's 1:21 when I did not feel good. Team Stoner came 4th in the relay out of 24 with the 5th fastest bike time so v happy with that. Did not let the side down much 🙂
Mrs S 3rd out of the water, and 7th in the run, so her swim time was our saving.
Annoyingly my phone GPS packed up after 4km so I had to try and pace myself using time and 5km road markers.
Swollen with pride I may now be, but this is not the start of anything. Bloody daft game.
Not too late to dig a swimming lake at Stoner Towers.
Still entries available for IM Wales.
(Well done both BTW 😉 )
well done !
but this is not the start of anything
Ha!
I'm giving it a fortnight, max, before you're all over the TT and 5w/kg threads, having bought a cheapo frame 😀

You may well be right scaredypants...
“And then riding around on top of it. Wearing spandex. And a plastic hat. Like a total bell-end.
I still want a surf hat 🙁
