Record attempt scheduled
Re: Record attempt scheduled
Looks like a nice chunk will finally come off that old record
Re: Record attempt scheduled
It’s looking good
A big difference to last time when I woke up she was at Dornoch RAB
viewtopic.php?t=120240&start=285
this morning she just cleared Helmsdale.
A power meter? I suspect at this point she’s working with a pain meter and trying hard to keep it as low as possible.

The RRA schedule is for a LEJOG.

Re: Record attempt scheduled
As of now (08.45, Friday), she has 4hrs to beat her 52hr, 45 min target and she's about 45 miles away from JOG. Sounds very doable.
Re: Record attempt scheduled
would love for it to be under 52 hours.

Looking good for that! Last hills out of the way…
Re: Record attempt scheduled
I hope the good people of Caithness can get out and line the route for the final push and witness history in the making. Keep going Christina….

Re: Record attempt scheduled
Ooh, good graph!
Pleased to see that she's past the point in 2019 where she dropped off pace dramatically so hopefully that's a positive sign that she's paced it really well.
Once at Wick it's only about 17 miles - hopefully a fraction under an hour at her current average speed.

Re: Record attempt scheduled
whilst I don't think its going to threaten the record it does look like pretty rough conditions for the last 16 miles. Going to be a bit of a slog

Re: Record attempt scheduled
It looks as though she's leaving Wick on the 50 hrs. The next few kms looks to be into strengthening headwind then it will be on her shoulder. Fingers crossed for inside 51 hrs.
Re: Record attempt scheduled
XCWeather showing a 15mph NW wind at Wick. It looks like she has loads of time in hand, but that's a bit mean right at the end, and there's very little shelter up there.
Fingers crossed she's feeling good and she finishes off as brilliantly as she's ridden so far

Re: Record attempt scheduled
12 miles to go; I assume she won’t match the 20mph pace she managed at the beginning but should be comfortably inside 52h

Re: Record attempt scheduled
Less than 5 miles to go, wonder if she might just sneak it in under 51hrs?!

Re: Record attempt scheduled
Going to be tight though - wouldn’t she have to be in by 1100? Definitely going to be well under 51:30 though.
Re: Record attempt scheduled
I don't think she'll break 51 hours now, even with the 90+ m drop into town, unless she has a sprint finish, but won't be far outside it.
Amazing!
