Down in the West-country..wet and miserable...the weather's not too good either
Took part in the Mid Devon CC club TT tonight, didn't know the course but an undulating one, x2 loops of a 5 mile out and back. 27:16 which was OK for the first run out.
One of the time-keepers talked about his previous encounters wth PNE riders, two of them (many years ago. A chap called Brown and another chap who beat him on a 200 mile race, but didn't over-take until mile number 199! So it tends to be embedded in his memory for life! Nice chap, friendly club with a handful of youngsters taking part.
Okehampton on thursday if the terrible weather down here lets-up, aparently you can easily reach 45 mph on their 10 mile course (but of course round here what goes down goes back up with a vengeance!
Absolute gales here tonight (Thursday) so will have to give the S40/10 a 'raincheck' - there IS a pun there! There's always next week
