  • strong text My bars were obviously not in that position on purpose, they had slipped and I was holding them in place whilst taking it easy for the remaining 6 miles of the 10.

    They slipped as a result of the stem bolts rusting and NOT because of the mechanical failings of either my dad or myself.

    As to the heads down comments, I generally ride heads up but put my head down intermittently as I struggle to keep my head in one position without getting neck ache and so the down position stretches it. My dad is the same; but neither do it for extended periods of time
