Emily Patch - Triathlete

Today I took my new whip out for a ride. I can't believe what I difference it makes, although side wind can be pretty scary😬  Went for a ride with grandad (in his car hah) to do some hill reps, still hard work even on my speed machine.  The biggest difference has to be having no pain in my back and shoulders while riding, having my bike set up has made a massive impact on the way I ride and made it more enjoyable, thanks again Cycle Mode.

With only five days to go until my first race of the season I am unbelievably excited to test out how fast my new bike can fly🚴💨. This month I have been focusing on revising so I am far from full fitness, however I am glad to have made some progress on my running, I managed to complete a 5k run with little pain in my shins. My run time won't be fast in my tri on Saturday but completing the 5k is a step in the right direction.  A few days ago I was presented my new customed boardman air 9.8 bike by Chris Boardman himself😊😍, was a brilliant day and I couldn't thank Cycle Mode enough for my new bike and for arranging the day. It is a stunner😍
