I headed to the Silverstone Wind Tunnel with Aerocoach to optimise my time trial position ahead of the National 24 hour TT later this year.

    Glad you're doing the 24 this year, there's not many videos about it and the prep that goes into it and for me that's one of the most interesting races!

    Afternoon Chris, 👋 entirely coincidentally I was at silverstone yesterday.... Not for testing, but a porsche track day. It was fabulous! BUT! An interesting point, after the safety brief: there was a talk ( with porsches human performance division) and the services they provide to F1 drivers and athletes from a multitude of sports, particularly endurance. It was really interesting, I have to say......I'm now wondering if there is a link between areocoach at silverstone & the human performance team at Porsche? I didnt realise just how VAST ! 😳🙂 The site of Silverstone is ! Wow! It's already well in progress , putting up stands for the F1 race in a few weeks' time ( more WOW! from me!). Hope the training is going well. It seems your plans with the tech side generally are coming along very nicely there Chris ! 👍💪. Have a great week! 🍻

    Thanks mate, training is a bit of an ebb and flow at the moment to be honest but trying my best, the current weather really isn't helping..

    Will there be a video of the TT? I can imagine it being quite hard to actually film you riding it, camera on the bike is not very aero 😁Best of luck!

    I don't think it makes much difference to be honest because of my position. We discussed it and as it's not really in the wind that much it shouldn't affect it
