Alas, i'm too short for time so it's an afternoon session at Galby while it's still dry. I'll be thinkin' of ya though. Coming down Jolly will take some sack.

try a 34 in the back and a 22 in the front..... I dont think you'd have too much fun doing one of times hell rides on a SS bike, unless your Psycho Mike.....

the way this bike is set up, i couldnt climb very effectively. But i have ridden it all over galbrieth up in b-ham, and had a blast. 21 miles isnt out of my reach, even for the single speed. I just need a good climbing gear, and then everything else is coasting downhill

Stick a granny cog in and you're good to go. i always hit a high cadence spin and just take it easy on the climbs, so i can save the gas to have fun on the dh. This is definately going to be a ride focused on speed on the down more than the up.
If you're serious lemme know, it'll be way too much fun. :D

A ride so sick that nobody has signed up yet.
And nobody probably will either. It's hard to find riders who like techy dh that you have to climb to. Just the way it is....
i feel so alone. i'm gonna go cry now.... :( :monkey:

I'm So Ronery
I'm so ronery
So ronery
So ronery and sadry arone

There's no one

But nobody ristens, no one understands
Seems that no one takes me serirousry

And so I'm ronery
A little ronery
Poor rittre me

There's nobody

Feer rike a bird in a cage
It's kinda sihry
But not rearry
Because it's fihring my body with rage

I work rearry hard to stay nice and fit
But none of the women seem to give a ****
When I rure the world maybe they'rr notice me
But untir then I'rr just be ronery
Rittre ronery, poor rittre me
I'm so ronery
I'm so ronery
