Anyone doing Broga Reverse 116 ? Broga Reserve also known as Jantan loop... clockwise called Janita... Jantan Vs Janita, do these spark anything in your mind?

paying RM120 for the ride, with RM20 refundable if you fill in survey (RM10) and return timing chip (RM10).

Too bad, Broga reserve ride become my third priority.

i have Ocean to Ocean in Thailand run from beach faces Pacific ocean to beach faces Hindi ocean - waiting (in waiting list) or else Penang 28km trail running.

y la all events packs into 1 weekend.

Time Trial = TT ?

u thinks too much bro. just ride.

1st time ride, dont put too much expectation but learning...

u can slow in 1st half, push second half.
u can push 1st half, slow in second half.
u can use combo slow push, push slow...
u can slow all the way...
u can push all the way...

most effective way: find a cyclist u hate most, target him... tail behind him... and when crossing the line, overtake him...

or another effective way: find a female cyclist.

ok. finish cocking. back to work.

Haha. Not my 1st time on the route but definitely my 1st time trial event. It is to provide seeding on the upcoming 92km event.

Drafting is allowed, heck you can even go with a group..not a proper TT I would say but definitely is worth pushing for. Bought the classic championchip as well for the timings.

With my cassette I can't keep up with riders with avg speed of 45kmh..some of the trains are pretty fast I could only draft them for a minute only..I tried once chasing a semi-pro like train and they are doing 50kmh constantly..

I still haven't configure my bike to suit the flat route yet..but with the compact and 32T cassette I can ride with 30kmh avg group with no issue..

Drafting is way too much fun! It's effing effortless! Haha

user posted image

i never see u consider in upgrading crank !!! it's time now!

just tag along the group that you comfortable.... u can start with fast group, if drop, then tag along second group... if drop again, tag along 3rd group, if drop again, tag 4th group... and the process continue if you keep dropping...

ended you're #Foreveralone finishing the event...

btw, road to sucess: 1 week train 9 times. u go figure out urself. This is what P2K top rider female rider kakak do in her training...
