For those of us who managed to forget how hard it was going into the east wind on the way out, it was a fine evening for a time trial. Anyway, eleven of us rode and finished in good spirits. Celia McInnis (that's me) with 24:58 was fastest and the most improved over her best 2011 CFCC, despite still battling a cold and a bad ear infection. Heather Tkalec was second in 27:00, an improvement of about 4.5% in her cube speed from the last time when she did 27:24. She felt that Sylvie's aero helmet was helpful here. Susan MacIsaac was third in 27:06, 45 seconds slower than her database base of 26:21 which was set in the CycleFit Chicks time trial on 2011-Jul-25, perhaps not yet fully recovered from her fast practice ride of the 20km course that a number of us tried out in preparation for next Sunday's Provincial Championships Time Trial. Fourth place Vie Babikian improved her cube speed by about 4.3%. She asked to start first, and was the first back. We joked that she could have started almost a minute and a half later and still been first over the finish line! There were a number of excellent legitimate and illegitimate excuses for lost time, one of the funniest being the distraction of swallowing a bug - yes, this happens when your mouth is open to breath hard! Among the more legitimate ones was the fact that our youngest rider, 17 year old Camille Bédard, had never done a time trial as long as 15km before. She has been doing well on the young Quebec racing scene where the time trial distance is usually about 7km. She was tired at the end but posted a good time of 29:02, right in the middle of the rankings. Diane Houston had to overcome the biggest handicap with her rain gear and luggage, shown here in the 2011-Jul-11 rainy time trial. She may have been slowest at 35:33, but 25.318km/h is impresive considering the challenge of what she was wearing and carrying! Anyway this was the last of the six CycleFit Chicks time trials for 2011. You may click here to see the results of those who have done more than one CFCTT take in 2011.
