Absolutely loving my Scott Genius 27.5 FS! Much more manoeuvrable (in my own way), and the plus tyres does wonders for confidence. BUT saying that, I specifically bought the Genius so that I could change to 29 wheels, should I wish to do so in future (and if I can find a decent but affordable set of wheels meeting all the specs!)
They should make it a requirement for passing a driver's licence: to ride a bicycle on a road shared by vehicles. Only then might there be some understanding. Its the same with pedestrians that get killed while crossing a motorway - most have probably never driven a car on a highway, and therefore have no grasp of the speed / lack of visibility etc. Heal up soon.
Ai, was hoping to see how close she'd get...but suppose there's no point once you've calculated that you're not going to make it across the line in time. A phenomenal effort, specifically with all the catching up over the last day or so...looking forward to see her cross the line next year!
