Big news from @midlifecyclist.bsky.social Serotta back in the UK! www.cyclefit.co.uk/journal/ben-... For custom bike fans this is huge. Very nearly bought a second hand early 2000s C5S Colorado on eBay over summer. Always wanted one like Phil’s pink CdA

Applaud @cyclefit.bsky.social Manifesto www.cyclefit.co.uk/journal/the-... by @midlifecyclist.bsky.social - had years of joy from fits done 15 years ago (bike & insoles) & Jules' pioneering suggestion to try shorter cranks. Used on all my bike builds. Hoping my old Merckx isn't too old for refit

Finished "The Midlife Cyclist" by @midlifecyclist.bsky.social. I'm past "midlife" but it was only published 4-yrs ago. Still, it contains valuable info that will keep me riding for decades to come. If you are 40+ and ride, read this book. If you 50+, consider it in combi w/Joe Friel's"Fast After 50"

Julian is working at EF Pro Cycling camp this week inducting new riders. Job No1 is making sure our jig accords precisely to mechanics calculations. Multiple lasers deployed.
