I rode my regular geared road bike for the very first time in 8 months after riding nothing but fixed gear all this time. What a strange feeling... for the first several miles, I had to practically think and force myself to stop pedalling to coast. My legs kept spinning no matter what.....not that there was something wrong with that. It was almost as strange but different feeling, somewhat like getting on a fixed gear for the first time.....but this time it almost felt scary.....I didn't have that "connected" feeling, like I was missing something. Sorry if all this don't make any sense...
