01/04/2013 – the Weee Run on the Racing Bike

Monday, April 1st, 2013

Yes, old yellow has finally broken cover and hit the tarmac this year.

2 observations:

  1. The gearing is harder than the hybrid
  2. the bum does not like a lack of suspension and tyres pumped to 100 psi :-O

Rode it up Perrymount and turned right onto the A272

Rode to the centre of Cuckfield and headed for Ardingly Road

Rode down Hanlye Lane and the Balcombe Road

Rode home backup Perrymount Road

This felt like a slower, harder ride, but time wise it matches a recent ride on the hybrid :-O http://blog.wanderlustonline.com/2013/03/10/10032013-the-weee-run-in-the-cold-wind/
