Subject: RE: South Carolina State Time Trial This was the first race I have come away from where I felt I didn't come close to my expectations, missing my expected time by 7 minutes. I tried out my disc/Hed3 set up for the first time and I guess I did not put the cassette on the disc tightly enough. I had done several training rides with it, but all on smooth roads. This road was so rough that it actually made my cassette become loose, rattling all over the damn place, so that when I took the wheel off it fell apart. I think I lost a lot of power and just could not get my speed up because of it. All in all bad race but fortunately it wasn't my last race of the year and I made up for it with a good race at Hickory Knob! |
