• Thanks to Varno for the wheels, and advice from the old Peugout thread on where to get a seatpost that fits the stupid french frame. Also got a Giant EXT adjustable stem, it splits in two so acts a bit like a face off. Also, it had yellow on it.

    Went along to a local cycle club meeting at a 400m track ( I think it was an athletics track) for a floodlit training session they do on mondays. Some confused looking glances to begin with then some sprinting and pack riding where they all ride at 17mph and you have to sprint ahead, catch up and join the back of the pack again.
    Going to go again next week, kept up fine, didn't die, nice blokes.

    I think it highlighted a need to put some drops on, I have some ITM Anatomica 44 bars but no brake levers other than some gold eighties dia-compe jobbies with a double action lever so you can use them from the top of the bars.
