R/R me thinks youve mixed me up with someone else!!

I have only been in fun rides as far as organised events go. Its a lot of fun, and the most recent one was a real rush cause I was aiming to do a resonable time.
Yeah lve onlydone "fun"rides,but somehow they end up competative too,the wannabe racer in me surfaces!

I'm currently aiming for a place in the 50km event near the end of the year but that may be ambitious.
Good luck, what sort of speed will you have to maintain to come in placed? Is that a speed or endurance race ?
There are also some local time trials I want to do well in around the same time. I love going fast on the road - its best when I am hitting near the speed limit in town - car drivers look surprised!
Watch out you may get a speeding ticket!!!!
