This is the final mockup before cabling the bike. So the grips got the final trim and the hairspray overspray removed, the brake levers and shifters transition nicely into the 2mm thick Soyo grips. For me this is good fit with palm support.
Next up is cabling so we are getting closer to a test ride .

ya daft bugger, it's meant to go in the grip.

My mental state has been sagging lately due to a minor injury. Much to my surprise I now have a inguinal hernia.
I'm still training to go Time Trailing in spite of my injuries as the clock is ticking.
So what am I doing about it, I bought a Amazon hernia belt and spent a few days adjusting it for maximum effect and it does a good job of of keeping everything where it belongs and it is as comfortable as can be expected, but it does look like something Tim Curry would wear...

So what next... Dr.'s appointment next week to get fondled and see what the repair plan is. in the meantime I will hire somebody to lick my wounds.
As I turn 69 next month my thoughts are "Fook It I'm Not Dead Yet, full speed ahead.

Take it easy Mike. There are always a few more tomorrows.

Sad to hear your news, Mike. I hope you get it all sorted asap .

I think what's bugging me is I had a fairly tight plan for training and the race and this injury just blew all the plans out of the water, because of the time uncertainty. My body letting me down was not good news and mentally I havent come to terms with it.

Thank you, being competitive is always been a thing with me and I need to get into the mindset that I just need time to heal and get over myself.

Hopefully you’ll get over this hurdle & back on track soon..

injuries heal, and then the training to get in the tuck position and hold it for extended periods
