Fastest in 6 Years—Steve Caldwell Who? Christchurch, Canterbury ☀️

{"raceId":13368141429,"athleteId":2188545,"name":"Fastest in 6 Years—Steve Caldwell Who? Christchurch, Canterbury ☀️","description":"Leeston time trial tonight, and while TTs aren’t usually my thing, this one turned out to be special. Not only did I show up, but I showed up fast! In what has to be the ride of my life at Leeston, I smashed out my fastest TT in six years—shaving a whopping 1 minute and 10 seconds off my previous best. Six years of turning up, grinding it out, and tonight it finally clicked. Pretty chuffed with that one!\n\nTo top it off, I managed to edge out my long-time nemesis, Steve Caldwell, by a few glorious seconds. Those seconds might’ve been small on the clock, but they felt huge in the moment. Let’s just say I’ll be milking that little victory for as long as I can (sorry, Steve!).\n\nAfter the TT, the ride home was where things got really spicy. Mark Maitland decided to turn his time trial bike into a rocket ship, clearly motivated by an impending family dinner. He hit the front, and the pace went nuclear. The peloton had no choice but to hold on and pray, as no one wanted to get dropped in such spectacular fashion.\n\nWe stopped briefly at Lincoln Library to regroup and catch our breath, before an easy roll back home. Once back, I treated myself to a soak in the new spa pool. Perfect way to warm up, recover, and reflect on a night of personal bests, a cheeky nemesis defeat, and some truly hot racing action.\n---\nWeather Report: Clear sky, 17°C, and the wind was blowing
