Whilst looking for training info and generally reminiscing about previous bicycle exploits I ended up with another goal for 2021 and a mad cap scheme. I've joined the Veterans Time Trial Association (being over 40 is weird) and am intending to do some time trials. Given that I sold my TT bike ages ago (wish I still had it) I figured I'd use my road bike and see if I can beat my PB on that. Then after a couple of days of tripping over some parts in the garage I came up with this
Seems like a reasonable amount of people over here use fixed for time trials and by all accounts are as quick or quicker on fixed than with gears. I've got a short gear of 69" on at the moment and am aiming to try mid 90s once I'm used to riding fixed again. Just need my lever to turn up and work out what is missing from the headset that is making the whole thing a bit wobbly :)
