This week's event came towards the end of a rather hot and humid spell - a strong and gusty wind blew up during the day, but had thankfully abated by the time I left work to ride over to Stony Stratford, where the evnt was being held on the F5u/10 course (actually about 11.4 miles in our configuration. My new route over is to ride up V10 then across to Watling St on H3 and on to Stony. This was pretty straightforward, and a good warmup.
For the event itself, I tried to keep the gears modest for the climb up to Nash, and by and large succeeded. My HR quickly rose to respectable levels, and indeed (probably due to the warm conditions) rose over 190bpm for much of the event.
I felt reasonably good, and finished as first vet on standard, about 51 seconds behind Tony Parks. Most of us found it rather warm! This puts me (just) top of the vets league.
