Pierce tests new 1x gearing at Tameside

Alex Pierce: I raced at Tameside circuit yesterday evening in the 2/3/4.

Was a little surprised at how hard I was finding the race and my power data was way higher than it usually is in the e/1/2. I just couldn’t seem to move up in the sprint and ended up in 11th place. However afterwards it was pointed out to me that everyone was having a laugh at me as I somehow hadn’t realised that I had ridden in the little ring the whole race.

Taking spin-to-win to a whole new level. Hopefully some better results in the next few weeks!
