Tour de Houilles


My predictions for a few of the athletes who are running the Tour de Houilles this Sunday are below, as usual, calculated with my prediction tool found here.  They look reasonably accurate to me although I hope Nico can go under 37 minutes given his recent form in the French Cross Country Championships, which the prediction tool can’t take into account.

Nick Bramwell
0:38:31
Eric Chenallier
00:35:21
Jean-Marc Chretien
00:35:14
Gerard Diolez
00:42:23
Patrick Le Gouguec
00:42:09
Nicolas Rousseau
00:37:31
Gerald Dejean
00:36:30

This is a race I usually like to do myself, normally finishing in a little over 39 minutes but not this year due to injury.  There is no sign I’m going to restart training any time soon which is fine for now, but might be annoying as the weather gets better.  It might be a good idea to finally buy that road bike I always claim I’m going to get.
 If anyone wants to predict their times for the above or others from the club it would be good to see who is the most accurate.
