replace the 165mm cranks with some 140mm ones

Do it Lewis, my coker is now fully pimped out and with 125s, fancy
racing them down the greenway over easter?

It occurs to me that whilst you guys totally owned me on the hilly days,
several times that flat day I was riding along behind Hans and whilst
it wasn't super easy to keep up, it wasn't impossible, and I was sure
as hell less fit than you. So maybe you have a point here.

Catching up with him, after he got a head start off the rest stop and I
wanted to get photos of all the riders was super hard work though.

Yeah, on that day I was spinning rather fast (I am still not excellent
at spinning really fast like Ken) and you were with me the whole way
cruising on your schlumpf 29. It seemed that you were a lot more
relaxed and were keeping that speed a lot easier than I was. Schlumpfs
definitely own on the flats.

From my own experience with Tony's schlumpf when I went to the grocery
store (NEW WORLD order...or brave NEW WORLD) from his house. Im not
sure how long of a ride it was but there were a lot of steep ups and
downs on the way. It wasn't hard shifting, but I know that I would
have arrived faster on my coker. The schlumpf just felt so slow on the
uphills, and kind of sketchy on the downhills, but when I hit flat I
was cruising.

Hans Franz speaks the truth, and as another note he looked very
comfortable riding his geared 36 on the tour...and even though he had a
faster and more dangerous machine he didn't have any crashes like
-some- people on the tour did 🙄
