Time trial test 2.


So, time trial 2. 46:17 in place. *Much* better. Much less bouncing on the saddle. 1:58:00 for the 64.35km route, average power output 205 watts, max 903, Hr around 135+ the whole time, with about 1300 calories burned.

Next up comes the 2 back to bak tests where i will be given different electrolyte replacement and comparison made with the week afters recovery and time difference.

All good.

Wool delivery boy today, then some serious fettling and fussing tomorrow. I made new spacers for the rear OMM rack and i am much happier with them. They are now parallel through the braces to the frame and i have used semi spherical washers and spacers to allow for suspected micro-movement whilst bouncing around. I also ordered a new stock of high quality SS allen key bolts so i can carry spares on more loaded and biggger rides.

I need to get all the kit i would ride witth out and have a look at it. The jandd bags arrived, for the handlebars and under saddle. Perfect sizes...Ok, over for now.

Where did you order your bolts from? I need a selection for various things and need a good source.
