Today was TT day! There had been a last minute change of course a couple of day's before we were due to fly out to Malta. So instead of the 3 laps and 15 miles of the coast road, it was moved to a straight bit of dual carriage way on top of a hill! With 7 laps!
On route to course!
1. One of the motor bike marshalls drove into the kerb and fell off!
2. Nic thought she had a puncture, but no it was just the shorts!
3. Eve realised her wheel was not in straight and was rubbing against frame. (She wondered why the hill was such hard work!
43. We got there, and rode course!
What else can we tell you!
Oh we must thank the lady who owned the pet shop!
TT time!
Jo managed to miss the turn point on first lap! She headed straight round roundabout instead.
Anyway we rode the tt, I caught several people, and it was very windy!
Results in and as per usual they were dubious! Jo was in 4th despite the missing turn and adding on valuable time. She did a 33min 43sec, so we thought she might stand a good chance of a podium place, but no! Instead the winning time was 32 min!
With all of us in the first half of field, and 5 of us the first 11, we are set for road race next day and the best course of the tour, despite the rather bumpy decent and corners!
