The 40 hardest miles in Co. Durham is what makes up the Teesdale CRC Mountain event! (Hence the 21mph ave speed of the winner!) Usually you’re either climbing at 9/10 mph or decending at 40+. Well not it was a struggle to pedal down hill at 25mph with the wind and conditions, made possibly the toughest headwind I have ever ridden in!
Climbing from Barnard Castle, to Middleton in Teesdale, then over Boilhope Common to Stanhope and back!
As a previous winner in 2005 (when I was slightly lighter and a better climber) on a 1st generation CR1. Yesterday I left the Plasma in the garage and rode the Foil 10 with a pair of clip on bars I had a trouble free ride and was happy with my performance. The bike, wheels and tyres all, again performed faultlessly!
