I went for a ride up the road for the first time on this what I can only describe as broken bike. The drivetrain feels dead and the shifters are hard to function. My fat ass feels unbalanced on it, I can't do acute turns due to me not being able to handle my excess weight. Normally you'd lean into the turns then go upright again but because I can't handle my weight I'd fall. Thankfully I took it easy knowing my limitations so I didn't fall nevermind attempt acute turns. This shit is a disability I swear you can't do anything with excess weight.

I've got a bike specialist coming out tomorrow morning to collect the bike. I must remember to ask him whether he can do anything about the ride height. It's ever so slightly higher than I'd like, there's not much in it but enough to make me feel an imbalance.

Heavy breathing. Legs started to hurt. Sweating. From only going up the road. I won't complain though as its my body reacting which is better than no reaction.
