The 2016 #SummerTT was our best, most competitive, and most fun TT yet.

Since the course length is an odd 2.2K distance along with being extremely challenging (rolling hills, gravel, uneven terrain, and tight corners), this race has become notorious for being extremely painful, somewhat random, yet impossible to resist! Because H+P calls this loop home for 8 months of the year, we have a home court advantage stemming from our intimate knowledge of this 1.1K loop.  The #SummerTT allows us to put this experience to use, showcase our speed, and run the Waterloo Park ring road better than anybody else can.  Here is a little taste of how this year’s edition went:
