Re: Coast to Coast - in a day. Advice?
I've put in a few rides this week as I start to give the C2C some more thought. I've made a couple more decisions - my main one is that I'm convinced the road bike is the right choice for me. It's superlight and fast of course, but I also find it genuinely comfortable while I've always struggled with sit bone pain I really feel I've got the angles just right with the current setup. (I ride a size that's probably a fraction smaller than I should which probably puts me a little more upright than a normal racing position.) I am definitely going to stick a wider ratio cassette on it though given the route and the distance so will be swapping out the 11-28 for an 11-32.
