Did a wet session at the track this afternoon. Did 3 pump laps followed by 5 1st straights and tabletop on the second straight the 5 3rd and 4th straights.
I am really liking the Thrill and I am manualing it really nicely. When I get the Yess back I want to get the bars the same height and width as the DK bars on the Thrill as they seem to be the perfect height and width for me. I am not even freeing the bike when I ride now except for the cranks feeling long and the gearing too low.
I did a couple of near perfect first straights and managed to do tap manuals on the first jump hitting the balance point and also hitting the balance point on the second jump as well.
I then did 6 50m sprints with 3 minutes rest in between as the track was starting to get wet and I didn't want to mess it up too much.
I am going to take the day off tomorrow as I want to pop over to Gary at Curtis bikes to have a chat about the new frame and how it is set up as I can't remember what options I chose.
I also want to ask him about flat peddles as he said he had found some really good ones and I need to get flat peddles this month to put on the Thrill to start learning to peddle properly. I also want flats to make it safer to try jumping as I can jump off if I need to.
