6.8 miles, apparently 1400 ft of climbing but a lot of that is in one go to get into the woods, and I was trying to stay level. Lots of little rough singletrack I couldn't get much momentum on so had to grind out on the singlespeed. Then crashed OTB on the fast loamy fun bits.
Loved it all the same :-)

  1. Think I'll have to break my singlespeed out again, it's been at the back of the garage waiting for me to replace the wheel bearings. A job I hate as it usually results in a sore thumb or some skinned knuckles, but what the hell it's such a fun bike.

  2. Was briefly loving it a bit less as I waited in the minor injuries clinic as the pain in my hand continued to rise, but as it is only a bit of tendon bruising and almost certainly nothing broken I am happy again :-)

  3. Sorry for not being a cyclist, but does OTB mean over the bars? If so, NUTTER!!

  4. It does, and it wasn't my intention, but it was the second time in maybe 5 rides :-)
