The weather was wonderful, today, and despite the unavailability of riding buddies (yes, I was Billy-no-mates), I ventured out for a most pleasant 4 hours of (mostly) bimbling around quiet Sussex country lanes amongst the first bluebells of the year.
Having rotated the bars slightly upwards, so that the hoods were more upright, the riding position was improved considerably - just need to reduce the reach setting for the brake levers, as it didn't feel very natural when braking on the drops.
As my confidence and fitness improve, this bike just gets better and better.
Happy Bob.
