Still new here but need to vent about cycling...

If you have your housemate's name on your accounts, when (and hopefully a long time from now) one of you dies, those accounts will transfer to the survivor. At least that's my layman understanding of it. Ask a lawyer!

Hey there again, cat

Just picked up on point #2 in your last post.

A TT would be a great way to get speed and maximum effort in a minimal risk race situation.

TTs are "supposed" to be flat - so not usually too many treacherous fast descents...

TTs are ridden on your own, so you don't have to worry about other riders being stupid and risking your safety - or conversely, if you feel dizzy or something, you place no-one else at risk as you slow or wobble.

Your speeds are way above what we do... my partner and sons race pace is 40-45kph... but their training rides usually average around 28-30, sometimes less, because going fast all the time is not always necessarily the best training. My average training speed is about 25-26kph, and my race pace is about 30-32 kph (and climbing slowly). Mind you, we have only coarse chip roads - no smooth seal in this country except patches in cities.

But back to TTs... I think they would be a way to race competitively and alleviate your flatmate-sister/friend's anxiety...
