Some short crit times from this morning - 13:30
 
One thing that can provide some indication of improvement or speed is to have
a specific circuit or climb you know your time on and can compare against that
at other times. This morning I thought I would put that in practice a bit
during the ride. I selected a 
short
(2.34 KM) circuit at Majura, mostly on single track, with the intention to
ride it at pace a few times during the morning ride.
 
I suspect I am somewhat slow and unfit currently so I hope to improve on this
significantly. This morning I did both my fast laps of that circuit in almost
exactly 8m30s, the second lap I slowed down on all the climbing, however there
was more daylight so I was able to do that lap with no lights.
