Riding fixed on 110.9 gear inches AKA 1 week 3 TTs

Last week I attached a 13 tooth cog to my bike. This combined with my 55 tooth chainring gave me 110.9 gear inches.

I was scared and excited, would I go really fast? or more likely, be unable to turn this almost proper time trialling gear.

I ended up riding three TTs.

Tuesday: VC Bristol/Kingswood Tri
Wednesday: BSCC
Thursday: Dursley RC

I hit pb’s for two of the three, only missing a third pb, by 5 seconds with a gruesome headwind. I was really happy with the weeks racing and felt good on the bigger gear. I need to keep riding it to increase strength though.

All through the week I was wondering how I was feeling so good and not getting tired. It subsequently hit me this Monday morning when I woke up feeling like crap!

I’m hoping to feel better to ride the Inter Club TT tomorrow night.

Even after attending three events I failed to take a single photo.

I would really like these wheels.
