Is there ever a time where a TT bike is useful nowadays? I used to use the TT bike when I wanted to maximize my kms on a flat course, but with the density in any flat part of Watopia (or anywhere really), is there a time where you'd use the TT bike?In a TT race?
(not trying to be flippant there).
And though I don't do it, I've seen some people do group rides on TT bikes I think because they want a more consistent, steady effort, not being slave to the dynamics of group drafting. It's the hardman approach to group rides, like choosing the mountain bike on a road course to make it a little tougher on yourself.
