The club's first event of the season is the 25-mile time trial based on the E2 course (roughly from Quendon in Essex to Sawston in Cambs and back on the B-road that was once the A11), using the race HQ in Ugley (north of Bishops Stortford). You can enter individually, but this time trial gives you a relatively rare chance to race as a pair (or 'two-up'). Obviously it helps if you and your partner are fairly evenly matched in terms of ability, otherwise one person is frustrated while the other suffers non-stop. Quite a few of us are entering, so we're trying to co-ordinate things online so that people get a suitable partner. I put this on facebook, but I'm putting here as well for the benefit of those who don't use it. Here is the spreadsheet - anyone should be able to edit it: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Vme8PqxCgCgJzJ79BMjq_rhyBMnlLFjdcNw1cQKtYSQ/edit#gid=0
