Committee Alan McLean Posted March 30, 2011 Committee Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Overall direction is SE so NW is best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin H Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Just to clarify, the conditions of the £50 donation to Charlie's charity were: Charlie completes course in 10 hours or under (including feed stops, crashes, mechanicals and pushing up the cobbled climbs). That equates to an average speed of 16mph for 10 hours which would be impressive given most club runs over shorter distances are run off at around 16 - 17 mph (not including stops). All the best guys. Colin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2024 Subscriptions Darryl Gunson Posted March 30, 2011 2024 Subscriptions Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 If it includes feed stops then he'll have to go much quicker than 16mph to complete in 10 hours. Now that would be impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest EPCC Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 169 mph no problem for Charliie as he has been eating an awful lot of imported beef Spanish I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Committee Alan McLean Posted March 30, 2011 Committee Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Where are we going to watch the pros? Big screens at finish, Oude Kwaremont and Geraardbergen. Back to some last minute cassette changing. the ^&*****^$£ing 12-21 is stuck on the hub and I really want the 13-27 on. A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Committee Alan McLean Posted March 30, 2011 Committee Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Don't understand weather: Metcheck say 6 degrees, bbc says 21 degrees. 6 degrees sounds more likely. Anyone explain? A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James2764 Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 I've packed kit to cover both forecasts just in case. Most forecasts say it's to be fairly warm but windy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KennyS Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Alan, Surely you're not changing cassettes at this late stage. What kind of example is that to set? have you asked Katie for a loan of hers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Committee Alan McLean Posted March 30, 2011 Committee Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Katie also got a new cassette tonight (mental 16-24) and I had to quickly roll it out to check it's within gear restriction. It is. Whew. A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
