Every morning I set off on the winter commuter bike (mad heavy 37c marathon plus pannier rack mudguard job) with the intent
'do not race other riders'
Yet within 5 minutes, target acquired, engage big ring, 110rpm, power band, reel them in*
*then stop at the lights like a good little boy, only for them to sail right on through the lights.... only means I can chase them down again :D
I'm kind of hoping that dragging this mad heavy bike around all winter will make me faster for spring.
