Carbon Loaded!!

Here it is - the long awaited carbon beauty - a Look 555 - full carbon (even down to the bottle cage - a 2nd one is on order) plus Ultegra 10 speed.

Out for the inaugural ride in the June evening sun tonight with clear views over Wales and out to Blackpool.

The ride feels stiff on the climbs and steady on the decent (touched 36 mph) and thankfully, the minimalistic saddle was gave hints of potential comfort. Not sure my legs were in the best form after a 15 mile fell run yesterday with Jude setting a good pace. The hot vimto at White Coppice was well earned! Signed up for the Round Roses sportive (20 July - 74 miles round Lancs/Yorks) .... in anticipation.
