  • Wow Bjoern's line is just so consistent compared to everyone else's, chapeau!

    Dan Massie rides with me in Islington CC. I think he only got into cycling properly in the last 5 years (he apparently lost 30kg or something ridiculous). He's always been good at one-off, long-distance fast rides and last year he did a humongous tour of the Pyrenees and Alps which inspired him to give ultra a go this year.

    The TAW is meant to be a training ride for TCR but he's a classic bloody-minded Scot so I'm not surprised he's doing pretty well with the bad weather. However, as you say @skinny, he might not know when to hold back to save his legs, will have to see how he feels next week.

  • classic bloody-minded Scot

    The first phrase that always comes to my mind on Dan.

  • With his short sleep stop last night, I think he's trying to catch Luke and get the final podium spot.

    He's a 90k gap to overhaul, so he's got his work cut out.

  • i bet the weather is more pleasant in TCR
