Last Sunday (7th Nov) was the speed judging competition. We met up in Hertford and had a gentle ride to Epping Green. Then we did a 4.5 mile lap first in one direction and then in the other direction and the closest to their own time won. As you can see I came fifth, and that it was not about going round in the fastest time, as Peter, Jason and Josh could all beat me easily in a time trial.
Pos Name Anti-clockwise clockwise time diff. (sec)
1st Pete 18.51 18.40 - 0.11
2nd Jason 16.51 17.05 + 0.14
3rd Bob 17.13 17.30 + 0.17
4th Josh 20.51 21.09 + 0.18
5th Me 15.39 16.10 + 0.31
My strategy was to go as fast as I could, both as practice and because I reckoned it was the easiest way to judge my times on both laps. I was pleased with both the times and the difference, though was surprised that the other guys could judge it so well.
After the race, I rode home back to Ware in time for a late lunch.
