Good ol' CockBumUp early thanks to the 5yr old so decided to ride to a station further away (~15km) on my billion dollar baby. Still arrived 20min early for first train of the day…
Still knackered from Sundays ride and footy last night so couldn’t be stuffed going for an extended spin to kill time.

Also ordered a new drivetrain, wheels, bars and brakes for this. It was virtually brand new but that doesn’t mean upgrades aren’t completely necessary.
I went to school with a Cockburn. It was also reputedly pronounced 'Co' - 'Burn'. Not that any kids would say it in any other way except the snigger inducing way.I used to work with a Cockburn.

Didn’t go into the consumables…. New gear cables, brake cables, and bar tape are also in the order. I have bulk supplies of gear and brake ousters so didn’t need that.Dont forget new bar tape.
Lizard Skins DSP 3.2 is the go
We worked with another company on a project and their project director was Co(ck)burn. He tried to screw over the Japanese so they called him yakichinchin which literally means burnt penis.
