Heart Murmur

Preparation for the Haute Route has hit a bit of a speed-bump. After hoarding a pretty hefty block of miles a combination of work and unavoidable sociability stuttered riding, although not as much as the body deciding to quietly and painfully implode on itself for a few days because it was made to ride something without dropped bars. A dark cloud hovered overhead and enthusiasm sighed and went up to sulk in it's room with the curtains closed and headphones on.

I bought some cross tyres for an event but now...

New Cleats And Fresh Breeze

New cleats, new studs, wind shifted just in time to blow from the north bringing clear skies and a proper chill air of autumn. The first cyclo-cross race of my season tomorrow, bottle-cage and saddle-bag removed from the bike, legs shaved. Cowbells found.

Genuinely excited, slightly scared and gently embrocated.

FS: Serotta Fierte Cross Steel Frameset 56cm inc. Headset

For Sale my Serotta 56cm Fierte Cross Frameset. I bought this bike when looking for some cross tyres and it quickly became my perfect ride to work bike. It's had good use but now has to make way for a proper road bike and so must go. Headset will be left in the frameset and is a Cane Creek S3. It also comes with a matching Serotta Seat Clamp, unused warranty card and certificate of manufacture all signed by the frame builders at Serotta. I have also got the correct touch up paint for it. The frame has had good use so there are a number of marks on the frame.
