Coming down Carlton Gore Road was strange, having to pedal through the tight corners on the brakes, rather than letting it all hang out, pedals level, off the back of the seat!
Then a stupid bitch almost took me out in Courtenay Place, sitting in the traffic jam then deciding to turn left just as I was about to pass. She got a mouthful of kind advice on driving safely.
That's what it's all about... less gears, more beers!

42-16, pretty low. Matt reckons I need to get a bigger gear, but I don't think I could push a bigger gear up the hills. Going down is harder than going up! Gonna use the freewheel for longer/bunch rides, so I can coast down and not get dropped...
Take the brakes off you wuss, you're no traditionalist!
its gripped!
gripped, sorted!
brakes off, yeah na, don't think so. but i can do track stands already, couldn't do em yesterday, today i can do no-handers, sitting, standing...
