The art of team riding in time trials and on the track is a skill worth developing. Riding close to other riders at high speed pushes you, develops technique and feels like flying (if you’re doing it right).
Richie Jerome has suggested entering some teams in the Surrey League time trials including the league’s 4-up Team Time Trial Championship on 11th September – anyone interested? Let Richie or me know if you’d like to give it a go.
I’ve listed below some TTTs coming up.
7th August – 13:30 – Surrey League Staplefield 2-up TT – Handcross
8th August – 07:45 – Farnham RC 25ml 2-up and 4-up TTT – H25/8 (Bentley)
14th August – 13:30 – Surrey League Staplefield 2-up TTT – Handcross
17th August – 19:00 – Bicester Millennium CC 10ml 4-up TTT (closed roads) – H2.5/20
28th August – 14:00 – Maidenhead and Dist CC 29ml 2-up TTT –
11th September – 13:30 – Surrey League 4-up TTT Championship – Alfold Crossways
TTTs can be a great way to train for the team track events as well. Don’t forget…
