18/05/2012 – both bikes ridden in Chertsey

Friday, May 18th, 2012

Today I took the mountain bike into Birdie bikes, and collected the racer.

I rode along the river to Carcraft, then rode round to Birdies to swap the bikes.

The racer has had new brake levers fitted, and it feels much better for them, the mountain bike is in for a service.

I now rode to Chertsey Bridge, rode under the bridge and returned to ride past Carcraft and along the river.

It has to be said, you do notice the difference that suspension makes (or rather your bum does!)

However it has to be said that 3.35 miles on the new bike is the best so far. I did 1.61 on the old bike.
