This site, now in its 27th season, is a labour of love and fun from one of Ottawa's most avid time trialists and number crunchers. It adheres to and is permitted by the laws of Canada, promotes the objectives of every bicycle club whose results are shown, and is donated free of charge by myself for your enjoyment and usage. If you would like results from series you ride in to be shown here, give me (celia.mcinnis@gmail.com) a shout!
NOTE that this site had to be quickly moved to a new server with a new version of Perl. Unfortunately the way of interacting with the web form has changed, so I'll have to do some reprogramming to get the buttons and search boxes working. Meanwhile the links work fine and you can always add query specifications into the URL! :-)

There was one new rider to welcome tonight - Heidi Ploeg from Wisonsin who was up to visit her family and to do a fourth-placed fast 39.852 km/h ride - or, in American-speak, about 24.76 mph. The top four riders finished in less than 23 minutes tonight, and the first three were quicker than 40 km/h.

With nice low air pressure but the winds a little higher than ideal, two women improved upon their previous database best for 15km and seven women improved upon their previous 2008 WTT best. The most improved in both of these regards was Alison Ingham, who was very happy with her new machine! Her previous database best had been 25:16 on 2006-Jun-01, a minute and 5 seconds slower. The only other person to improve upon her database best was Alison James, out for her second ride this season and her third ever OBC time trial. The second most improved in terms of earlier 2008 WTT performances, with a more than 9% increase in her cube-speed, was Barbara Wilson, who joked afterwards that she had been "harassed" by the passing Sandra Bender for still riding her heavy, old bike in this year in which so many of us have upgraded our equipment.

You can click here if you wish to see the fastest five 2008 WTT performances of each participant, sorted by the average of the average speeds, or if you're adventuresome, see what you can pick out as noteworthy in the 2008 WTT series from the Advanced form.
