Single speed racer

I just rode 7.5 miles! Check it out on Strava: http://app.strava.com/activities/19433410

Forgot to take my lock off my mountain bike, so i didnt go shopping. I went for a great ride, ending up at the Chataqua trailhead. Single speed is different, but in a positive way since i never realized how much i think about shifting gears while riding. Hills are definitely tougher, but if i can get up the big hill on my way to work, i won't worry about it. I took baseline tonight and was absolutely zooming down the hill. The new bike is smooth. But going up that hill is awful and actually where i destroyed my last derailleur, now there's no derailleur to break. I still walked it though.
