I was assuming you’d convert to a chain! Or do belt drives mean the frame has weird spacing / chainline? I know nothing about belts.

Oh yeah a chain would make sense. Belt sprockets and rings aren't cheap!

Congratulations on Andy West of LFGSS winning the Vet prize at the Catford CC Hill Climb this morning but I want to know why you didn't ride fixed? :D allegedly 54" is the optimum gear for it
Edit because I fucked up the Team Prize only checked senior times, Junior Ben Neal's time put Southboro & District Wheelers ahead of Rapha,

1 man and his dog again ! The route up to the mast is a nice off road climb over the top and across to llandegla.

Thanks. Happy overall, could probably have gone harder, but also learning that I’m not impervious to age. Wish I’d started at 22 not 32!

Petlamb?
He was at Oxford with my brother, that was his nickname back then
Changing gear would be a bit tricky (and expensive)
