Managed to cross something off of the challenge/bucket list this morning; Riding Suikerbosrand on a singlespeed. 

34x20 worked well on the climbs, but seeing as I spun out at 25kph it meant the flats and mild downs were pretty slow in comparison to normal and meant I couldn't gather some momentum to coast over rollers.

The wheels did proverbially come off on the last big climb, where the beautiful morning turned to sweltering heat and a small tailwind which made it feel like riding in an air fryer. Didn't have to dab, even though I was proper grinding by then.

Always fun!

all cappuccino's should be that size!

A friend once commented, “seems you like the taste of milk, not coffee”, referring to the larger-sized cup.

I'm not a cappuccino fan precisely because milk. I'm not a fan. That coffee looks yummy to some, horrendous to me. I'll take a double shot espresso thanks.
