The weather played out as projected.... maybe even better.
The temperature was a balmy 80 degrees, low humidity and a fading 5 mph NW breeze. Solid conditions for a Time Trial!
We had 7 riders roll to the start line - one new TTer... Welcome Al !
Alex Johnson, fresh off of his monstrous 2016 Course Record effort of last week, sliced and diced the course with a FMT time of 23:03 (26.03 mph). For the women, Chandra Russo, continued her weekly improvement by eviscerating the course in her non-aero road bike with a PR time of 25:17 (23.73 mph). She is currently has the fastest woman's time for non-aero bike and is only 5 seconds by Amy Kneale's 2016 woman's CR. Chandra did exclaim that she'll never do the TT again, but I suspect she'll forget the pain and be back for more.
Notes: You may have noticed Al's time and wondered why his ave speed wasn't lower. He accidentally added about 3.5 miles to the course.
Winner of the Ben Rabin H2O bottle - Eric Bansbach
Winner of a coveted Time Trial Wars t-shirt - Alex Johnson
Next week is the last scheduled Time Trial. If the weather does not cooperate, I will be willing to give it a go the following week.
Now the results!
