Bribie Island Tri 2021
Postby foo on patrol » Tue Feb 16, 2021 8:28 pm
Haven't got my Giant Chrono running again yet, so it will be my Scott Foil with the clip on's again and the Zipp 404 Speed Weaponry's for the job. I do it for the kids in the team firstly but it is a hell of a workout, going full tilt for that 10klms and barely able to stand up after it. Before anyone say's what, only 10klms, it's a very technical course with plenty of turns and round about's for some interesting lines. I maybe in my 60's but I can still corner better than most of the top Tri athlete's on the day.
Anyone from here taking part in it?

Surely bad weather plays to your strengths Foo. It will punish the lightweight whippets who can't handle their bikes, especially those whose equipment is selected based on being aero in steady state conditions.foo on patrol wrote: ↑Fri Mar 19, 2021 5:17 amFinal one for the season on Sunday. Conditions are looking very good for it, with wind and rain a strong possibility.

It may not be fun, but you should look forward to doing well.
Cheers,
Cameron

Thanks but it sucks having the determination of a 20yr old and the fitness of a 80yr old even though I'm not that old.

Thanks.
It's a barely okay average for me in my constant state of unfitness. If fit, I know that I could average 36-37kmh and that's what sucks for.

Thanks mate, pain is good is pain. Three young girls beside me in transition, thought I was dying in front of them when I was trying to recover hanging onto the bike rack. (Asking, are you okay)

Hey you aint letting it stop you
You've got a small heart like me.
Cardiac output = heart rate x stroke volume.
Us heartless bastards have to pump faster to get the same output
