    Just 2 hrs @ 16.5 in the pouring rain, still drying out
    First ride for a week, so welcome nonetheless

    Re: Todays Bike Ride

    Been doiong some TT-ing, so did some TT specific training this morning... before work

    So I was to be found in rush hour, riding down the A465 to Abergavenny, then up and down the A40 dual carriageway to Raglan, flatout on the TT bike, to see what I can achieve on that 10m TT course this Sunday, then ride home again... Well, that was 60 odd kms in 1hr50 minutes or so, so ok-ish

    Two almost rest days now, and fingers crossed for Sunday, see if I can pb... even though I am pretty crap at short, sharp blasts and hate the pain of lactic acid!

    Re: Todays Bike Ride

    Perverts, both of yer!

    Listen, wot I have done is to treat my poor grubby GT ZR2000 to a deep clean, a loving polish, new brake shoes (unsurprisingly!!!), a tweak of the headset (bottom bracket nice 'n' tight), a thorough chain wash and a re-taping of the handlebars after adjusting the position of my brake hoods.

    Now just looking at it lovingly hanging on the garage wall waiting for nice dry weather to return so I can give it a spin. Hey, Toff, fancing Col Du Knob this weekend??

    Also noted the sizes on my chainset. Front is 53/39 and rear is 25/13. Is that or ????

    Wheeze, well done on the bike cleaning, mine is still dirty, as I had the TT bike to attend to... and that flat tyre has not been dealt with yet either, so still riding around on a mismatched spare wheel

    When are you planning on riding Col du Knob this weekend? I am working Saturday... TT-ing sunday morning, but planning on playing with the bike and some hills on Sunday afternoon? Either on the cross bike or on the road bike...

    A brisk 35 last night in the sun and then 2 hours out on the all new and improved CX this afternoon. The front wheel got shoulder charged by an overactive terrier whilst going through some woods that saw me on my arse again
