Fastest time to the mast yet!

The new bike was brought home today and hastily got ready for a trip to Glentress. There was only Clive and me, and we set off from the bottom at about 7pm with no great intentions but after we'd reached about halfway up the black route we realised that a fast time might be on. With the last climb to come Clive set off in pursuit of the record time and reached the mast in 1 hour 4 minutes and 43 seconds and I managed a new "old codgers" record of 1 hour 8 minutes and 35 seconds!

The new bike seems to have done the trick and apart from an annoying squeak from the front brake felt really good. Tomorrow night that squeak will be investigated, I couldn't stand that too long!

Have there been any annoying squeaks coming from "her indoors" yet?..or have they come from you!!
