35 miles today

took a trip out to blandford and then to winterborne stickland, but not up the bastard hill from derweston!  Felt a bit rubbish really, still trying to get used to the more higher geared Felt with its roadie setup.  Im sure Ill get there eventually.

I did order a shorter stem today though, its such a long reach to get to the hoods and its pulling my shoulders more than Im comfy with.  Its just over half the length of the current so itll be interesting to see how that works out.

Didnt feel too bad on the ride, but the last drag along the A31 really is a drag.. its very unpleasant with the traffic, I must try to plan a way to avoid that, even if it means going slightly further.

getting to the stage now where Id like to look at clubs.. Arrow's do some in the area, when a social ride pops up that doesnt start from xchurch Ill have to give it a go.

Wish I was fitter.. I guess a more demanding bike setup will push me so its just a case of doing the miles.
