Maiden Voyage

[justbob20]

First time out on open road - V20, SRAM red 50/34-11/36, 165 crankarms , Zipp 60s, Contis 24F/25R
long hills = ugh, need more time in the saddle
coasters = zoom
flats = zoom
downhill = fogitaboutit
overall = awesome
learned :
need to allow bike to move somewhat freely without trying to hold a straight line
work needed for optimal uphill technique
some low back dc, consider Thor for longer rides
ran out of oomph, ? 53 ring

The seat grows on you as your core strength comes up.
The V20 does beg for at least a 52 on the nose.
