How many of us are now on the bike and not running Crispin? Maybe we should start a Mynydd Du cycling club![]()

Most fell runners do more cycling than running - seriously is that true?
Me I'd hardly done any til got injured round Christmas and couldn't run any more, then got bike for a bit of commuting to work.
Last night I did 25:03, which was way better than my first effort but that was in strong winds and hail (25:53)! I'm told the Brecon course is about 1 minute slower than the Abergavenny one. There were two guys way faster than me though - under 24, wow!
That is a good time on that course! Great...
I am riding on the Abergavenny course on Friday, all being well... I am hoping to get near 25 minutes myself...
Lots of fell runners seem to cycle when they are injured...
is the Abergavenny TT open to anyone? time/venue? I might come along, and see if I can tempt Dave out too.
The fastest chap last night was Neil Cox, who I think is in the Abergavenny club.
Yes, Neil is one of ours...
Our club TT is on Thursdays and is open to non club memebers. You pay £2...
Here is the info you need, on the club website: http://www.abergavennyrc.org.uk/events/index.php
You won't see me there, as I work Thursday evenings... but I am doing a solo attempt on the course Friday, as my coach wants to know how I compare on that course against the other women in the club...
So far I have only done a 25M TT.
P.S. Dave does not like time trialling and is about to sell his TT bike...
A ride out to marshall at the club evening 10 tonight. Probably got 30 miles in and got wet on the way home. Home it's dry tommoz, got some biking to do.
Well I managed 50 odd minutes of high cadence easy spinning as recovery from my three days of hard riding.
Got a bit wet though from riding through a deep puddle... water came up to my front mech... and my whole bum and back got sprayed, as well as my legs![]()
