So at lunch time I went out and made some adjustments to me on the bike. The first photo is the before and the second is the after.

First I made the bars parallel to the ground. After going for a brief ride I realized that I had to change the angle of the seat, more nose down. These two changes seemed to put my three contact points in balance. I also raised the seat about 10mm and moved the seat back maybe 5mm.

I feel more comfortable on the bike. I’m sitting less on the saddle and my weight is more evenly distributed on the bike. I also feel more relaxed. I’ll take it out for 20-30 miles tomorrow and report back.
