I'll be going in my first TT on the 30th. I'm pretty used to the course but I haven't ever raced in any form before. It's a 7km hill climb that climbs about 100m in the last 2km's. Hope you don't mind me asking.
Sorry, Hobart Dave, I've been mulling for a while. I assume "the 30th" means this month, so you've
obviously only got 10 days prep. If it were me, I'd still be trying to improve my fitness, even though
there's such a short time to go.

I don't have any highly structured "prologue" training programs, so I'd probably try to get in at least
3 or 4 murderous rides in (on alternate days) which include doing the course (after a good warmup) almost flat out, then doing half a dozen flat-out intervals of probably 1 to 3 mins.......????

THat's the best I can do at short notice
