sorry 'bout the late reply, didn't realise people were actually interested.
well, about 4 weeks ago, i fractured my elbow, and so i havn't been out, and before that, the weather was all shit, with ice n shit everywhere. the muscle (triceps i think) has almost healed, but i don't want to come to the bottom of a hill and then find the muscle has died on me.
i've got a 13t (dura ace ftw!) which i'm gonna try out, that may save changing the cranks, but big thanks to Jokster
...however it also means i lose out on acceleration, which was one of my strong points...
We've agreed to do the race in May, so i was planning on just training the hell out of my legs until then.
Who wants to see his bike? He's uploaded pictures of it on to facebook hahahaha... It's odd, it looks like a proper motorbike, but it can't be...
