I was gurning like a good un today on a segment I took KoM. I got some strange looks.

WTF am I doing...I'm almost 40, in Aldi cycling attire on my way home from work, gunning it down some residential street like a nutter on crack..

Nah. There logging on my phone then when I log on line there's no info of any of my rides?

I had this .. then I realised that i hadn't logged in on my phone

Today I managed to get an 8th place on a segment today (40 seconds off pace). Nothing special except I was pulling the trailer and taking it easy. For Thursdays commute I'm going to take the long way round

Nice, I am tempted to flag it though as dangerous as goes over the crossing

Do you really want to have to give your bike a thorough safety check every time before you ride it - it would be a real shame if one of your QR skewers can loose

On the fixed Matt, unless you have a 15 mm spanner no chance
