So this morning I slept through my alarm and woke up at 6:00 so I didn’t have time to walk again! I got up and did my weigh-in and I am down to 106.5 kgs this morning which is a surprise as I got a big chunk of my steps on the treadmill!
I had a load of deliveries coming today so I have had to do all of my steps in the house again today!
During the day I had flooring, underlay and bits for my bedroom floor delivered and a bunch of tools from Amazon as well. I also got my new 172.5mm cranks delivered from Crucial BMX as well 🙂

After work I fitted the cranks to the Curtis and also swapped out the chain tensioners for black ones and also swapped the rear cog around to get the chain away from the frame a bit and stop rubbing.
I was going to leave riding the Curtis until tomorrow but I think I will try and ride it on the rollers tonight to see how it feels before riding it in the morning!
I am thinking that I will get the long seat post on the Curtis and ride it into the office tomorrow morning to grab some bits then shoot home on it and give it a bit of sprint training on the way home to test it out!
Saturday I can hopefully get the timing system working during the 2nd session and then we can have timed gates to set a baseline time for the Curtis then I can try out different setups in wheels (Onyx compared to Profile), gearing (36 x 16 compared to 41 x 18), Tyres (1.6 and 1.75 PowerBlocks vs 1.75 Maxxis DTH) and also flats vs clips when my knee is better!
