Adjusted riser bar

Adjusted the riser bar today.  As it was it was awkward when getting up out of the saddle when climbing because the handlebar grips were kind of in an odd position - closer to your waist than chest which isn't comfortable for climbing out of the saddle.

Anyway, I undid the stem and flipped the riser bar over 180° and readjusted all the shifters etc.  Felt slightly odd at first but actually seems to be a bit better like that, especially when climbing, so will probably keep it like that for a while.

Managed to get a chunky twig/stick stuck in the chainrings today though, not had that happen before.  Was a bit dodgy because it was when I was going uphill and putting a lot of pressure on the pedals, nearly snapped the chain!  Don't think there's too much damage done though, the stick came out easily enough and rings didn't seem too bent out of shape.
