The last two weeks or so I haven't been feeling so good on the bicycle.
I bought some new wheels thinking they might help, but I was still feeling sluggish. Lactate was building up in the legs fairly quickly, especially my left leg.
Feeling really weak in the saddle.

The other day, I discovered that my saddle was in fact loose. Somehow the bolt had gotten loose and the saddle had moved all the way back on the rails.
Moved the saddle forward, set the angle, and tightened things up.
Alright!
But still....

So today I started to think about it.
Why was I feeling so weak?
Okay, I have some physical problems like really low red blood cells that make cycling a journey anyways, but something was just not right.
WTF?
I decided that I wasn't pedaling circles anymore; felt more like ovals and my legs were paying the price.
I stopped and moved my seat post up like 5mm.
There you go.
Now it felt like all my power was going into the pedals again; I wasn't fighting anymore.
Seriously, it was like I was turning one gear lower.
See? It wasn't me! Was the bicycle.
Okay, it was me. I don't how I was riding like that for the months I had this bicycle. I'll claim that the seat post slipped down or something.
Once I got home I did some more adjusting and I moved the seat post up probably a CM or so:




Fit is truly a game of millimeters.
