Tooting Bec Lido.
It was a little warmer but not that good. Did the last 2 lengths without a wetsuit as Sunday could be non wetsuit. I bloody hope not.

I had a bike fit this afternoon on the TT which was a long time overdue.
Got a new saddle which was immediately lowered by 10mm and much more comfortable. 3 small spacers under my R foot as this leg is slightly shorter. Seat was put forward by 45mm as I was stretching for the bars way too much. New 80mm stem from my old 110 and the bull bars still need to be shaved by a further 10mm. Lowered the front end by 10mm. These are the initial changes and still some more to come. Not sure if this was a good idea 2 days before a half but there was no other time that I could fit this in. It at least gives me 4 weeks to adjust but the position is already very comfortable. It will be interesting to see if there is a performance increase(fingers crossed!!!)
On the plus side, he as never seen such a symmetrical rider before...
