Thought I'd post a shot taken at my club's mixed ability Team Time Trial...

I know I'm bigger than the other guys - but this shot makes me look enormous :)

The mixed ability TTT is a bi-annual event for our club where the handicapper puts together riders of varying levels of ability.  Great way for people who don't normally ride together to get to know each other.  You don't know you're team until you get to the start line. Usually won by the team that gels the best and quickly figures out the best way to organize themselves.

This bike's meant that I've gone from a follower to a leader in this event.  Was able to sit on the front for much of the night.

Now I know why they love to draft behind me...
