A mix of aero bars, good wheels n tyres / inners, and a winter of TrainerRoad is what it's about. You could do with bigger gears for certain parts of that course, then it's lid, tight suit and aero overshoes, can't see frame being any more than a couple of seconds, little frame weight probably helps for most of that route. I may rock up at some point, need to borrow old aero bars off Paulo, as not heading down purchasing TT kit rabbit hole just yet.

Agreed, you know the 10 course (although changed v slightly this year) and 25mile tt is from stone to Slimbridge and back with 2 loops on Berkley loop you know. Got lid and tight top so only engine is excuse!!!!

The 25 miler is not so friendly - hate to say it, but it's power meter territory as undulates a fair bit with false flats and steeper rises, more difficult to manage your effort so you'll have to learn that one and have a game plan as unlikely to dial it to begin with.

Never ridden the course in full (or done loop) just a38 part. Will need to do a recce. Doing it twice this year so 1 may will just set a time. No idea really of what I'll do.
