Did everybody have fun?

My stats:

I had a blast. Alan is an animal on a TT bike. Gavin is one tough SOB.
In a direct AB comparision in my last two TTT's with him, Peter is much faster without his brake rubbing.

Alce Elegante needs to get older for next year. 2nd overall, 8th after adjustment.

I had lots of fun!
I was ready to ride alone when I found a partner on the start line, just on time.
It was tough, we never had enough time to recover in the back, but we managed to keep a very smooth pace.
We finished it in 1:53 and I'm pretty glad about that.
Thanks to all of you guys, it was an awesome day.

Gavin and I already talked about that. We're getting fake ID's for BC masters races.

Looks like way more fun than power-washing a driveway Regarding fake I.D. - Instead, you could report your correct age, Allan. I'm 46, racing age 47. I think that means you are too, no?

This looks like it was a heap of fun. Almost as much fun as hosting 17 people for brunch with an acute whisky-tasting hangover. Congrats to all teams -- and especially to the organizers and volunteers.

I've got to say, I'm gobsmacked by the age / speed / fitness dynamic shown in the results. It's so encouraging to have found a sport where I'm a baby and could still be getting better 30 years from now. All you old(er) guys & gals are truly inspiring!

I didn't actually lie about my age--told 'em I'd be turning 47 this year. I have no idea why I'm down as 45. I'm sure the two years wouldn't have been enough to pull us up in the standings... but I like the idea of doing what it takes (lying about our ages) to gain an advantage in future time trials on those old dudes.

They've got me down a year too young too. Says I'm 34.

Josh, Alan.

My mistake on the ages. Duane has the new numbers and will update his site tonight (you''ll move up one spot in the age standard rankings)

Hey Matteo,

I was your teammate. You did a fantastic race...you are a natural om the bike.

By the way, check our time against the other teams....twice my prediction friend.

Our team should have been Grand Torino!

Cheers,

Dave M

Hey Dave, nice to find you on the forum!
When you first told me we were doing well, I was so tired that I was sure I couldn't keep that pace for the other half of the race. But we did it! Thanks for encouraging me all the time.
