Northern Kentucky ridge line road. There are some fantastic bike routes here, with extremely low traffic and a decent road surface. Lots of 300 foot climbs.

Unless your Porsche was setup for rallying, you’d likely destroy the suspension pretty quickly. This is not a good road for spirited driving in a sports car. There are others in the area that are fun, but not this one.

I notice the angle of your saddle is not quite in-line with the frame. Offset slightly to the left, the same thing happens to most of my bikes after lots of riding, even though I build them all to be parallel on that axis. Have any of you noticed this on your bikes? Is there some kind of biophysical dynamic at play here? Or are we just crooked?
