A few pages back Xav pointed out that my aerodynamics might benefit from some improvement (normally around 0.27 in aerolab rather than below the 0.23 value that he thought was achievable). Coincidentally, I just saw some good side-on pictures of me racing, and so I was wondering if there was anything obvious anyone would suggest to improve my position at all?
The two things that seem most obvious to me are that (a) I look quite far forward compared to most people. This is probably a hangover from my background in long distance triathlon where the forward position apparently improves my run off the bike. I'm not sure I really want to change this because I'm likely to go back to LDTri next year. (b) My back looks quite curved compared to the photos I've seen of the top people?
