so what was the last long ride you did? i just rode a bit over 40 miles on my constant gear (i'm sick of saying fixed), which is the longest ride w/no coasting i've done yet. it was also quite hilly, as i think i hit most of the big hills in the area - which is in the driftless region (no glaciers there).

it was pretty funny to pass by the roadies w/super nice gear while on my surly xcheck constant gear w/32c tires and fenders. oh - and there wasn't a cloud in the sky - probably the last day this warm before winter... although i seem to keep saying that.

alright - i'm done bragging... your turn.
