Leaving bike as it is.
No water cage pump....took it off.
No second water bottle....took it out.
No saddle bag...took it off.
Those are the only changes.
I figure I will spend a little more time than I usually do in the drops to be as aero as possible. I also found today that I am pretty comfortable coming out of the saddle while staying in the drops. I tried to do a dozen turns of the crank like that at a time to keep my speed up....going in and out of the saddle that way while in the drops.
