I took my cyclops for a ride today with a higher seat, a road stem, bullhorn bars, and my eggbeaters and the ride was so much better. You can put some serious speed into that thing and it just keeps wanting more. I guess I'll just take out the NJS gear on special occasions.

After riding my 43x17 fuji touring bike all winter I'm so not used to a 49x15 track pursuit bike. I can really feel the burn in my quads when I'm surging; with my winter bike I was spinning so much I could never get to that stage. I should start doing interval training or something.

Come to think of it, anyone want to start doing some resonably regular and directed training rides/sessions this summer? it would be good to keep up a schedule.. I'm also planning on starting to do climbing again as its super fun and works out all the parts of your body the bike forgets.
