I took the shhh gravel fixed in to work today for the first time. 34mm byway tyres, 19-42 gearing. The ‘road’ to work is awful in places and I just glided in, there are a couple of short, but steep climbs on the way and again the gearing was perfect. But what goes up must come down, a bit of rough used to be concrete track and today Liz shot off like a bullet and hit over 30mph. I was spinning like a loon and could only hit 23mph. No quarter was given and she ribbed me all the way in about having to wait for me. I may change the rear sprocket tonight.
