Summary of today's riding: shit!

Two hours and some 100 pedal ups (or pedal shits!) and I still didn't manage to get up the wall I got up during last session so easily. I don't know why...

Again "Pedal Ups". I just can't get enough of them. The funny thing is that my "Pedal Kicks" got better as well, and I'm more stable on the back wheel. Got a little higher today and my technique, if not brilliant, has gotten a little better.

Unfortunately, I was forced to end my practice earlier than I wanted to. The brand new Tensile Tocco failed me... :(

Before that happened I managed to get up another wall, which is a little higher than the one from last time. I also worked a little on my pedal up technique (again).

Not a very good looking bike but it's a lot of fun.






By the way: I got the Tensile Tocco Lever. So far I'm not that convinced by it's performance. It's better than the Carbotechture one of the HS33R but  moves back rather slowly which makes the lever rattle for a short while. I hope it's just temporarily as the lever is new.

Cannot ride because the 1 month old HS33R is faulty.... Ordered a Tensile Tocco lever to get myself the best HS33 out there but it'll take at least till Tuesday for the things to arrive. The "old" HS33R goes back to the dealer who will check what's wrong with it.

Yesterday I tried some backwheelhops on my 26'' MTB but it didn't work. The wheels just felt soo huge compared to my 24'' on the Marino. I was trying to imagine myself on a 26'' trialbike but couldn't quite see the advantages of it.

I guess I will do some normal mountain-biking then.

Have to take back 5cm. I measured again and it's only 50cm but still, it's getting easier every day. Today I practiced 4 hours and yes, I did something else besides pedal ups. :)

Summary of today's riding:

- 3hours of pedal ups (at least 200 tries)
- new personal best = 55cm

Nothing special but I'm happy...
