Well, Hamish Indurian is clearly taking the **** and isn't a valid
time. 783W for 3 min? I think not. And of course the name is a little
bit of a clue...

Yes both times are very fast which is a bit offputting I think. I have
cycled the route hundreds of times and I don't think I am giving anything
away when I say that the prevailing wind is almost always an advantage. In a
howling gale (not that unusual in Edinburgh) the climb is actually much
easier. That is why I think these might be real times.
