A 10 mile time trial isnt very far and people just use it as an excuse to have a lot of food with a lot of carbs with no regards to how much fat they are eating. Although it is not necesary to eat a lot I would reccomend having a high carb dinner the night before with very low amounts of fat.
45Minutes before make sure you consume 200mg of coffee. This is a lot but it will improve your time drastically.
Whilst your doing your time trial dont carry water its a waste of weight and the time you waste having a drink wont be worth it DRINK BEFORE THE RACE.
Make sure you have all the gear, especially time trial bars. I didnt have any time trial bars and i didnt follow any of the tips above and on a road bike for my first TT i got 10 miles in 30 min and when i used all of the tips above i managed to knock my time down to 26 min 47 sec just on my third time trial; on a road bike.
