39:25

Finally got my timed cycle in today, after Wednesday's farrago. 9 miles on the (relatively) flat Greenway in a time which you just might be able to predict. Tremendously happy with this, as it now means I've met all my targets for 2008: 300m swim in 7 mins (6:45), 2mi run in 18 mins (16:53) and 9 mile cycle in 45 mins (39:25).

On a heap of junk, as well. With almost entirely ineffective brakes. 75% of my brain capacity is now taken up with daydreaming of new bikes. Ones that aren't made from bricks.
