Shame about the lack of competitors, nice photo
What helmet are you wearing?

If the R-1 rule is broken, what happens to N+1?

Gold medal, Oceania Champion.
Not that big a deal really since it turns out I was only rider in my para category. Not the best for race day motivation. Still, one can only race who turns up.
I won't see file 'til I get home but average was about same as nationals TT a couple of weeks ago (~265W, NP will be higher, course was a little hillier than I expected), except this ride was ~ 52 minutes (nats was ~ 39 minutes).
Shame there wasn't more, but well done anyhow.
like I've said before, as a TT rider, I make a good points racer![]()
but I'm working on it.
I don't get it?

Looks to be a Limar speed demon. I had one, then it broke.

I'm just more physiologically and psychologically suited to points/crit racing than TT riding.
Just those events don't exist in para-cycling.

Correct. I would not be permitted to use it otherwise (helmets are all checked at championships).

A few others have the sticker too.
Spiuk kronos, Limar speed demon and it's little brother model (forgot the name), Lazer bullet, Rudy Project Syton Comp, Specialized TT-2, and possibly one other I can't recall.
