SHIFTING JUST TO KEEP UP
I HAVE A REAL PROBLEM WITH MY CREW AND I BET YOU DO TOO. They keep getting faster. Faster bikes, better training, improved diet and weight. There is absolutely no way on God's hard asphalt I can keep up...
... unless I shift.
Because the sport keeps changing all the time, I have to keep shifting my own strategies.
I think back to the early days...
... 8 hours was a big week,
21s were wide,
donuts and diet coke for breakfast the norm,
a big Saturday had me home by 9am...
... and all rides were hard, no recovery, nothing easy.
Keep shifting my friends, it only gets faster from here.
One thing I've switched to is wax for my chains vs oil.

Wax has the lowest drag coefficients. It's also dry, and doesn't pick up any dirt or grime.
My go to is Wend, the WaxOn and WaxOff products.
Apply a drop to each link and massage it in. Let dry overnight. Ride for miles on or off road.
