KIT Team Time Trial – Sunday 12th October 9am start

Title: KIT Team Time Trial – Sunday 12th October 9am start
Location: Chippenham area

Description: - Official cycling time trial organised by Chippenham Wheelers.

KIT last entered a team in this in I think 2003 so it\’s perhaps time we entered again, I\’m sure BAD will be entering a team also so could generate some friendly rivalry.

Basically it consists of a 24 mile time trial around the Chippenham area, right at the end of the season so will not muck any racing plans up and is really good fun.

Basically a team of three riders set off around a 24 mile course and fastest wins, easy as that, helmets are not compulsory but strongly recommended and you must cover your shoulders, apart from that its just keeping in the wheel of the person in front and taking turns to lead, when we last did it was really good fun and the cakes afterwards were brilliant anyway I\’m sure we could generate a few teams at least ( perhaps a female team as well Phillipa ?) , anyone can attend and if you\’ve haven\’t done a time trial this would be a good introduction for the 2009 season as these really help your bike splits and you will be with your mates. The roadies will stuff us for sure but we\’ve probably got BAD as a target.

We need to get a bit organised if we do intend to enter so suggest all those interested let me know ASAP so we can organise teams, sort out entry forms and get a bit of practice in.

This is a bit painful while out on the bike but a real buzz when you finish and we\’re still talking about our last entry in 2003.
