      Hi Harry, you mentioned when racing in Aus you moved down a frame size, from what to what? And what was it that brought on the decision, just geometry of cannondales or an updated bike fit? Wishing you all the best for the season ahead!

    Very cool, thanks for sharing! It would be pretty nice if there was some kind of head unit transponder for Jacob - he could mount something to read off on the dash of the Vespa to check your power output, help make sure he's in your target power range.

    Did you, or can you, have a head unit on the Vespa to mirror your data on the bicycle so you call out your target or whatever and then Jacob can guess speed easier? May be less work on you as a rider to be calling out faster slower etc.
