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

    Re: Todays Bike Ride

    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...

    Re: Todays Bike Ride

    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
