just my 2 cents though seems your fairly into the road bike scene though.
Couldn't agree more!

And don't bother with B-Lines even if you're a beginner haha. If you aren't falling off and making mistakes, you aren't going fast enough. I don't think I've put together one fluid run lately cos I've been pushing too hard haha
