Memorial Weekend Ride

Virginia Beach is flat. Seriously. I took the fixed gear 29er to Va Beach and had fun ride. Total distance around 50 miles. I don't know. I have no electronics whatsoever on board. I am enjoying the ride more, the less I am a slave to the digits and statistics. One lesson is that I want a new Tomicog in 16 or maybe 15 teeth for future road rides at the Beach. Current gearing is 44x18 which works well for me on the 6-8% grade mountain roads I like to ride but had me spun too high this weekend. Even so, I nearly caught several roadies on Shore drive heading to the beach and I passed 4 road biker babes on General Booth Blvd. Except for the occasional wind more gear would be welcome. The idea of passing multigear bikes with my fixie makes me happy.
