The single speed bike is out of surgery! Basically, I had worn the sprocket, chain and chain ring out. So I took the opportunity to try a different gearing option. I ride a specialised Langster and it came with a 42/16 combo. I was spending too many rides spinning out so I have gone for a 50/16 combo. It feels great and it's like having a new bike! Around Cambridgeshire, the hills (lumps?) all seem to be manageable in this gear. However, I have not experienced a strong headwind yet - Eek! I expect some serious grinding when the headwinds hit. All good training 8-)
I have still yet to get back to regular training and swimming is very dry at the moment!
