My trusty bike

Well here it is, I'm not on all the technical stuff but have stuck a picture of the gears in...just in case you wanted to know!





It's a Carrera Vanquish with Campagnolo gears.  I'm getting much better at cycling further in the largest disc at the front - I sort of set myself little challenges with the gears when I am out and about.  Looking at my bike computer I see that one click of the gears ups my average speed by 0.5 mph.  I hit 24.5 mph on Sunday on a lovely long bit of road and its felt brilliant.  Unfortunately, with surrounding hills my averages is still only between 13 and 14 mph...something to work on I suppose!
