Blimey, well done!

Cross races tend to be fairly intense affairs too don't they? Mad flat
sprinting for an hour and a half?
Brant should get news of you on his website.

Better than having your body rubbed vigorously with a cheese grater.

I thought it was just me. Once I put the longer than usual stem I was
able to get the seat closer to where I want it.

The set up is working out well for cross. Two races, two wins.

Hi Ron,

Yeah, it definately feels a bit chopperish at times but I find that
helps a
lot when descending, it all fits into place then. I bang my knees on the

bars when I'm out of the saddle climbing but all this might be down to
me
having long legs and a relatively short body. I've really got used to
the
riding position very quickly to be honest, it was a case of 'where have
you
been all my life?'. I've already done 185 miles on it and I've loved
every
one of them.

Riding fixed is excellent too, except when I'm on the road and someone
pulls
out in front of me, still get that 'ooh stop pedalling, ARRGH no don't!'

experience.
