     ...UEA RESULTS...  
--------------------------------------------------------
Name                          Time      Position (with ranking)
--------------------------------------------------------
Andy Tyler                    1:57:39   4
John Swindells                2:00:18   6
--------------------------------------------------------

Insufficient attention to physiology was the order of the day for our UEA riders on this new three-circuit course on the A11: Andy was suffering from aching limbs after a hard day's work on Saturday, and John failed to get his body warmed up sufficiently.
The result was a gruesome first circuit for Andy (after which he picked up to salvage 4th place), and an attack of lethargy from John who saw his heart-rate drop below 150 during the second circuit.
Bit of a shame really - sunny and warm, with a direct (if a bit strong) wind blowing down the dual carriageway.
