Silly STRAVA Racing

[4F]

An old friend invited me out for a ride with some of his mates last night, but when he found out I ride a single-speed he said 'oh, well maybe join us when you get some gears then?'

I'm considering taking some of his KOMs...

I think it is only right you rub his nose in it. Which ones has he currently got ? Maybe get Mr O Brien on the case as well and see if we can get the lot

My first KOM was taken single speed, no one's got it since, and there's been a fair few attempts. I'd have taken it geared if the lights hadn't gone red the other week.

A-hem http://app.strava.com/athletes/1023537 He's only got one KOM and he's the only person who has ridden it, and it's actually quite fast! I like a challenge.

Reported him, it's bollocks. He did a few laps then drove home.

See what you mean, bit quick for me that one. Time to send in "The O'Brien". I had a little play lunchtime on Paper Mill lane but the wind was the wrong way to give it a really good crack, still good to know they lay of the land for an assult in future weeks.

 

[Andrew_Culture]

I'm doing the same thing

I'm doing the same with PoundLane, if I know a road I know when to push. Kinda stating the obvious I guess!

I see the one your mate has got is subject to a hell of a lot of lights and roundabouts........

Yeah, I wondered about that. He's someone I used to work with and we're sort of linked through the old cider-sodden Ipswich punk grapevine. I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt so assumed that if he'd stopped at every red light he must be fast!

wow gone already, how did you drill down to the ride?

Hacienda not had a go yet then?

I haven't ridden it that way yet.

You could always ride it once and then flag it as dangerous due to the amount of lights / junctions etc

How about 6.1 miles at 32.2mph. This one is legit though. Simon Yates is currently riding in the TOB
