note to guy with girlfriend on ride both wearing orange at one stage.

raise your saddle sir
looked like it was very low, and your legs never got truly extended
you'll end up getting knee pains if you keep it that low.

Could have been me, I was in orange (on occation), not sure about girlfriend's colours, I had a low saddle on a frame that's too small for me, stupid wide flat bars, long reach brakes that reach too far, and 42x19 gearing... it's for polo (could have been worse could have had the wheel the wrong way round and been spinning a 42x22 :-)

Finished putting the bike together at about 6pm on saturday, didn't notice that i'd not tightened the seatpost enough till I got to richmond park... along with everything else wrong with it, the low seat is the least of my worries... anyway after a couple of guniesses and vodka/lucazades, it became very comfy :-)
