Lachine Criterium July 10th (Bring your H-Zontal Bike)

Same deal as the past 5 times. Gonna go straight, then gonna be turning to the left. For a whole hour. Fun !
For added pleasure, bring your H-Zontal bike so that you can gain the extra 10 Watts and the awesomeness factor when taking the win from all those pesky Ekoi-Gaspesien riders.

Meet at the gates at 5h30.

Should I try this?
Kind of might be out of my league… but gotta go some time right?

It was good for you not to come yesterday. 5 spidertech guys showed up and tried to break the course record. They started way too fast and the pack started splitting up within the first two laps, it was a pretty terrible race.

Did they succeed?

No. They started at an extremely high pace and by the 10th lap maybe 35 people were left. Then they realized that they’d started too fast and they couldn’t keep the speed up, at least not without help, and since everyone else was already dying, they slowed down.
The final average ended up being 49.5, which is still the 3rd fastest time in the history of the race. But that’s two minutes off the pace of the fastest time, basically a whole lap.
