Well when I am going fast the levers will be down. Perhaps I need flared levers!

The dedicated cycle paths are long and the weather hot... Due to lack of a cyclometer, I over cooked it a little today. I couldn't help but notice all the trike recumbent bikes also using the path. There seems to be a hub around Floral City for recumbent trikes. Indeed there is a dedicated shop...

I am so friggin irritated. I bought a lot of new gear to put on the bike for Sebring and it still isn't here. A couple of days ago they said they were going to try and send it by BA and now they say it will be arriving tomorrow night at 10pm so that basically means I won't be picking it up until...

It's nice to chill out from all those grandure ideas of winning by being at Blue Springs. I can quite easily forget where I am, what I am and indeed where I am going. :cool:

Hey good news folks ... It's getting warmer in Florida. I didn't need a jacket today and the first time in the year for putting on sun block.

They would probably send it to Italy. LOL

Park tools are the best. No sweat at that LBS. it didn't even hesitate. Bit surprised the guy didn't use a squirt of lubrication whilst undoing and the good news today is they located the bike box in London. Now trying to see how quick we can get it back here. Crazy logistics :cool::p

Wow... That's so low it would give me a heart attack just thinking about it! Bet she is fast on the straights too. Let's see what fate throws at me by Thursday. My brother's bikes have cheap nasty pedals that seem to have welded onto the crank arms. I have bent the only two crap Walmart spanners...

Well it's not a complete bike it's missing front forks , a seat and a headrest. I am sure it will show up but perhaps not by the 11th. Guess I will have to rupture myself and train on a DF!

The 2 new KMC X11 gold chains are being cooked with molten wax. I thought I would add lib with Jason's way and then hang them in the garage to cool down. So now to let them dangle on some coat hangers There's only one trouble. The bike is not with me. It got lost in transit. Countless...

If you were to forget the wheels and rent them from destination (that's if you could) then you could sandwich the main bike assembly in plywood wrapped with tape and put into a over large bike bag, which would be considerably lighter.

This how it's done. Still had a lot more in my suitcase. The suitcase was twice as heavy. LOL It doesn't really look like a bike. I used a swimming noodle to protect various parts. Then with the cardboard, I just slide it into the box.

You must be getting desperate to see gains with that. You could go full disc up front too. :D I thought of something too... So I changed my pedal set to give me a bit less resistance and rotational weight. I packed everything and now to do my back in by taking it all to Florida. It's easier...

:rolleyes:

Better let that thought go;) I bought some gel heal cushions for leg after care today. I also tested out a new cheapo hydro bag and the bite valve is well knaff :mad: So just have to get a two litre camelbak or perhaps just change the bite valve. Today's ride was a sweat box. Had three...

Florida at that time of year is a big mix. I am just going to take everything I have

I enjoyed this so much I thought I would do it again.:eek:

I will try to find out. I want to be be a semi pro photographer this year so not going too fast gives me a chance to take some fotos. :cool:

Well, I am now a registered AUK member. I registered for interest in LEL but does that mean all the places have been filled already??? Wow ... Just entered the LEL, well it's on my AUK event list but I haven't paid. Guess I get invoiced later.

I decided to replace my existing rim and put a tubeless deep rim. How long did it take you to secure and tighten the spokes?
