Final Preparations - 6 Days & counting

"Bienvenue" - After nearly 2000 miles of training rides I've had my trusty Pinarello in for a service, booked it in with Parker International - had a new chain fitted & minor tweaking of the gears as I'd been double clicking recently to shift gear. New bar tape to freshen things up was also added- Bike looks great.
I decided to have my stem inverted to give a positive angle & a more upright riding position - Its a bit late in the day for such changes but I just felt it may be wise for the 4 day duration of the L2P. All I have to do now is try this out before next Tuesday on a reasonable length ride - easy said than done with the amount of rain falling at the minute, [may have to revert to the training rollers] - If I don't like this new position its no big a deal to revert back to original - nothing ventured nothing gained.
"Au Revoir"
