Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

Well, I did for a bit. Now I'm just sore/swollen. Also, that happened on the final third of the ride.

Its definitely more difficult to get longer rides in now especially since it gets dark so early now, but even with teaching 6 classes a week now I've somehow found time to have a social life and ride my bike atleast 100-150 miles a week this winter. It all comes down to priortizing. And a lot of my rides end at midnight

All of my miles are commute miles. Doesn't bother me too much. 18 miles round trip 5 days a week. It's better than not riding.

Finally was able to install the Strada double wireless I got for Christmas last night; had to exchange the original one I got for a new box, the cadence magnet was missing from the first (sealed) box, very strange. New one works great. My average speed is a lot higher than I expected it to be, but I double-checked that I have the wheelsize correct, so it must be correct...

2nd wedding anniversary. I took the wife to one of the nicer restaurants in town, bought her flowers. She had chocolate covered strawberries for the first time and they made her blush.

Now I'm shopping online for parts for my next drop bar mountain bike.

I did do something stupid today. Turned myself inside out in order to stay in front of a school bus, which put me over my threshold for the 2nd straight day. I am absolutely paying for it now. Was either that or stop at every other driveway. Should have just rerouted.
