Singletrack Nation

Bike: Cotic Roadrat
Distance: 37 miles
Time: 2hrs 20mins

Phew! It’s been a long time since I did one of these, perhaps June/July this year, anyway, time was short this weekend and I only had a couple of hours Sunday morning to get any sort of pedal powered satisfaction in so I decided to whip out the Roadrat.

From the off it was completely noticeable that the legs have not had a sustained singlespeed ride for a long time, my aim was 40 miles and I actually felt quite good up until the 30 mile mark and then the legs just died for some reason, probably the curry/beer nutritional combination from the night before!  whatever happened it annoyed the heck out of me, so the plan over the winter is to try and get out at least every 2 weeks for a sustained singlespeed ride, unless of course the sun shines and I am forced into a mountain bike ride!!

Am struggling with temptation at the minute, have seen this in the sale:-

with 2 upgrade options which just blings the bike out perfectly, so my ultimate dream bike in a sale……
