At looooong last I have a fully working bike and it felt great to have full use of the gears, rather than battling with the gears and rear cassette on the spare wheel. I took it for a ride last weekend and nothing fell off, which was nice! Now all I need to do is get it serviced next week whilst I'm on holiday. That will give me 1 or 2 post-service rides to make sure everything is good and proper before our jaunt. The one bonus about all my wheel issues is that I found a great little bike shop in a little village a few miles from here, so hopefully they'll do a good service for me.
Only chance for 1 ride of 100 miles (almost) at the weekend. Not sure how many watts or calories that was Dave, but I had 4 or 5 beers a few hours afterwards and everything seemed in equilibrium. My training is almost complete :o)
