Today I think I might be ready to try a bigger gear on my fixed gear bike.

Rode the MUP 30 miles this past Sunday and was able to maintain a pretty good pace for quite a while. Passed quite a few roadies. One guy tried to keep up for a bit and I beat him up a little - dangled off the front, soft pedaled to let him catch up, surge just a little... He was trying to chat with me about the fixed gear bike and I could see that he was struggling to catch his breath, talk and keep up at the same time. Was fun. Ain't gonna lie.

Then I tried to keep up with four guys who were working real well together. Was not fun.

So yeah, the bike is currently at 48/16 but I might put a 15 tooth cog on the other side, if only for the MUP, to see how it feels. Just felt like saying that.
