I don’t have to worry about long hills… yet. It’s got a flip-flop hub, so I’ve got it set where I can coast if I want/need to.
I did my first ride today. It was a blast. Felt super-smooth and I got to work in about twenty minutes (2.5 miles). I need to weigh my pack, but I’m looking forward to increasing my distances.
Legs were a little pumped, but I stretched and rolled them with The Stick after my shower.
