Choosing the right gear

Time for the proper first ride of M's new bike.

He has all the proper cycling clothes but I understand the process of managing expectations through appearance.

And, I think that you can see who got to wear the yellow jersey...

A nice 20-mile ride. Which is a long ride for me. Managed to exceed my arbitrary target of a 15mph average.

His bike went well. We did have a couple of stops to raise his saddle to ever-increasing heights. Just to make sure that I couldn't possibly ride it myself.
