Cold and raining outside. went and did some messages. Took it slow because rim brakes with worn pads meant stopping was almost non-existent optional. brought a new set of cycling gloves at one LBS but realised after I left that what I'd actually gone in for was a new set of brake pads. So I stopped off on the way home at the second LBS to buy some. For some strange reason, I was the only one out on a bicycle. Now back inside and warming up with a large cup of coffee.

Oooh, there was a little chin music from Ohtani. Benches were cleared but no brawl ensued.

I don't know how to do a wheelie. Should that be my summer project?

That said, I don't know that I'd get this kind of tape again. It has padding and the seam. I bought it online (several years ago) and you don't know what you'll get going that route.
Maybe I'm wrong, but this stuff doesn't seem like it'll fare well on sweaty rides.

Interesting watch if, like me, you've wondered if bigger wheels would make your bike go faster.
