I had to walk away from it for a couple of hours :? :? :? :?

I have a TET FR to IT planned meeting up with BOL in June so started thinking about the 400 so tried the giant loop and stuffed it loosely and i reckon she'll do if the Donk fails

I'm using 14:48 and it's too high, I can't put top in until I'm doing nearly 60mph, I reckon 14:50 would be a good compromise though.
I have a 50 to put on but my chain is slightly too short.

14/50 is the easy way to go and what I would do.
Open your eyes and you see what is in front of you, open your mind and you see a bigger picture but open your heart and you see a whole new World.
