No TT for Me Me
Tonight is the weekly Seekonk Time Trial. Last week I did my best time ever, a 15:34. I had high hopes to go into the 15:20’s tonight.
This morning, I was getting my TT bike ready, pumping up the tires, and tightening the aero bars which had started to come loose in the previous race. Of course, being me, what do you think happened? I stripped out the damn bolt-hole on the flimsy POS by overtightening it. Now it won’t hold any weight at all without spinning around. Nice. Add another bike to the “out of commission” category (it joins the Dos Niner and my CX bike in this regard).
At least it is 95 degrees out, so I probably won’t feel like racing anyway.
Anyway, I just scored up a nice set of Ritchey one-piece TT bars on ebay, and some Ultegra barend shifters. That’ll fix it! Hope my wife doesn’t kill me though.
