Choosing a Bicycle

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.

Nice bike. Congratulations, been wanting a fixed gear/flip flop, however probably won’t be getting one as nice as yours hah
Also nice to know that mountain w/ different wheel/tire set seems to work out.
I’m jealous of your weather… (riding in ohio right now wouldnt be nearly as fun) edit: it be a PITA
