Nine of us arrived with the intention of riding this year's rather early Good Friday Time Trial, but only 6 lasted past the start line. This was the slowest of all the previous databased renditions, the times indicating more about the fitness of the weather than of ourselves. Luckily the high snow-banks provided some shelter much of the time from the north component of the extremely strong wind, and we sure missed that aid for the last 500 meters of the event! You may click here to see our performance ratios relative to our fastest 15km OTT ride last year. For your curiousity, you may click here to see how today's riders did as well on any other Good Friday TTs that they dared to ride, or here to see the the top three male and female databased GFTT times each year. The complete set of databased Good Friday results, complete with weather conditions, may be seen here. Note the "PerfRatio" column in this final view is set to show how the rider performed in the particular Good Friday event relative to his/her best 15km OTT performance in the same year. Anybody who scored a perfect 1 here probably only rode the GF time trial in that particular year!
