    I have never heard of paired TTs

    Perhaps there is a race designed like this, but I doubt it would be called a TT

    The TT is about individual performance, individual power output and individual endurance.

    The one exception of course is the team TT - but I have not heard of m/f pairs in a TT...

    I do think your idea is an interesting concept and I would be interested to know if anyone out there has heard of such a race... I might suggest it for one of our end of year "fun" events for the club to trial...

    "I will try again tomorrow".

    Ahhhh... my partner just left for his Sunday morning bunch training ride and as I was helping him and my son sort breakfast, bars, water/glucose water etc etc i asked about m/f TTs.

    He said, "you mean 2-up TTs?"

    I said... "I dunno, I guess"

    He said he didn't know of them happening here in Middle Earth, but overseas they do 2-up TTs and the second person across the line is time recorded for the pair.
    So I guess it works like a team TT, but with only two. He wasn't aware of m/f - husband/wife teams as an event. But in much bigger countries like you all have, you're bound to find one in yours!...
