Jenny Pryde Posted June 22, 2023 Report Share Posted June 22, 2023 There is something quite 'TT' about it. It's great, you really admire those who do it, but riding a bike for such a long time requires immense levels of concentration and you're always glad when it's over, and everyone makes it home, safe and sound. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EXUPDEL Posted June 22, 2023 Report Share Posted June 22, 2023 Imagine my delight when I opened the goody bag from pitstop5 and found not only a scone but also some butter and jam. For next year would it be possible to have a little tub of clotted cream as well? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it’s not a simple answer as regards the route changing etc, but is there a definitive list of fastest times? *Not a race. Definitely not.

It had pannier tanks and he had a pissing tube fitted... hope that's the right tag 👍 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rode with him for around 80 miles of hilarious terror into Edinburgh. We died laughing then as my bike went onto reserve he laughed some more and fucked off over the horizon. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sit down with some drinks and snacks and read the 2014 threads, looking back and knowing what has happened since, that was fucking epic and a lasting tribute to the people that made it happen and people who are no longer with us. Well done this year people, outstanding as usual. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laney Posted June 22, 2023 Report Share Posted June 22, 2023 Well done to all this year, I've thrown some money in to my mate Dave's pot (fnar fnar) He did it this year on a shonky gsx600f after seeing me do it last year on the mighty vfr. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure he had a slightly better 750 version but for some reason didn`t use it.
