Not had a TT bike for a couple of years, not really missed it, but am thinking of buying another one to do my club ten, some two-ups (which I do enjoy a little bit) and compete in a SPOCO series. So, should I, is there any point in it?

Of course not. Get a new track bike instead.

TT = Broken pencil. Pointless.

As if you need an excuse, I have not done any open tt's for ten years until last week. I have got a trek speed concept! It looks the part even if I dont!!

The point is to win, just like in any other form of cycle racing. Simple innit.
