It's been since July 2008 since I did a TT. Last year with a baby(limiting stage races) and a broken elbow, they somehow did not happen.
I also got a new TT bike this year, and hopefully it will last for a while unless it suddenly becomes illegal.
Having to sell my old frame before i got the new, as well as putting it together meant that i didn't get it built until late the night before, and even then i had to adjust the brakes the morning of.
My first ride on the bike ever, was on the trainer warming up for the event.
I even just eyeballed the seat position... not the best thing to do.
Happily though nothing went wrong with the bike during the race.
I had no speed or power and went just on feel. I was pretty happy with my effort, and nothing really hurt that much that shouldn't.
My time wasn't the best, not due to lack of power I think but more aerodynamics.
I sit a bit too high and my arms are to far apart.
The picture below hopefully will show the effect of lowering the front by about an inch..greatly reducing my frontal area...
