nathrix Posted December 6, 2010 Share :clap: Welcome to the club, how does she ride ?? Lovely Rode 42km Saturday morning, the last 10km my legs started to feel like jelly and I realized how many times I had to stand up on the pedals for the little hills so not to loose momentum to reach the top.

Wyatt Earp Posted January 5, 2011 Share Welcome to the revolution. It looks like a beauty.I read this on a social media platform today. "singlespeeding, it's about freedom, simplicity, pleasure, history and most of all a sense of childhood, what it's not, is that you don't brag about it, it's not about being a macho, it doesn't make you a stronger rider than others, for goodness sake, those people out there who ride singlespeeds claiming it's the new revolution and only the cool of the cool ride them, get over yourselves, it's called cycling."

eggsovereasywithteandtoast Posted January 5, 2011 Share Do you agree with this quote you have offered? or, are you just throwing it out there? I choose to disagree with the quote.My wording was perhaps insensitive to those that single speed purely to reminisce and disillusion themselves of their lost youth full ability.

divernick Posted January 5, 2011 Share Before I started single-speeding I was also a scuba diver. Of course I then discovered free-diving. Freediving is to scuba what ss is to cycling...I guess I like the simple stuff that challenges me a bit. Weppie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
