So after a couple of weeks owning my beautiful Red Rooster (2010 steel langster) I was finally given keys to my works bikeshed and decided it was time to ditch my mountain bike and do things the single speed way.
Oh what a joy not to have to content with crummy gears, clunking and whirring away. Light as a milky way I sped from Surbiton to Twickenham in record time grinning the whole eay. Boss! Gotta get used to getting my feet in the cage but apart from that things are lovely.
Spent the whole day worrying about it being on its own like it was kid or something.
