Liking the new gearing

Just got back from gates and I must say I am liking the 42x18 gearing over the 37x16 and 36x16.

It seems to be more responsive out of the gates and also I seemed to have a bit more top end speed without loosing any speed out of the gate.

I will find out tomorrow at gates at Bristol if it is any better than the 36x16 was on Wednesday but my first impressions are that it is better.

I rode a lot better today as well I didn't case any manuals today and this is the first session ever where I have manualled the second double every time. I usually case more times than I manual so pretty happy. Also not casing the second double makes it much easier to jump the table top out of the first berm which I did every time too.

Can't wait for tomorrow to try some gates against some faster riders to see how I compare to them.

I forgot to mention that it has been 6 months yesterday that I haven't had any fizzy drinks at all so I am half way to my goal of a year without drinking any fizzy drinks.  I am really happy as this is the longest that I have been ever without fizzy drinks that I can remember.
