This weekend (17/3) saw me get my legs ripped off in the HNCC 2up team time trial riding wingman with Andy Herbert around the Nomads' 25 hilly course. We clocked 1.03.09 which is pretty tidy given it was my first 25 for years and it was also lashing it down with rain. Andy was easily two minutes quicker than me so I thank him partly for hanging on but also balance that off for the beasting I got.
The following day, saw four Nomads take part in the Wiggle No Excuses Epic 80 mile sportive. We navigated the course in a sub-five hour "gold standard" time of 4.56. Twenty minutes of that time was occupied by flapjack eating and the casual pilfering of jelly beans (and really quite minging energy drinks) at the two feed stops. Many thanks to James Gomm, James Spence, Andrew Stevenson for the company. Even bigger thanks to Tim Wallis and Nikki Ollier for getting us there in the first place.
