Well, I managed to haul my some 15st 8ish up Bulbarrow. I went up the east side which is a 3 mile ascent over some 750 feet. The funny thing is that I lost my bearings and thought I was about to get 'the steep bit'. Wasn't long until I realised I was nearly at the top!!
Bike went lovely with its new schwalbe ultremo ZX's on. I'm too much of a novice to say if they're faster, but they did feel more grippy than the last. 45 miles in total, managed my glucose intake well so didn't run out of energy. I was quite achy tho for the last 10 across shoulders etc. Research seems to suggest that having the shorter stem might be part of the issue, so I've put the other one on and I'll how it goes.
First social club run on Sunday so thatll be a good test.
