Had great ride on the old single speed on Saturday. She's a 1/2 size smaller than any other bike I've ever owned, but I don't mind for this setup. There's not exactly a whole lot of sitting to be done. She's currently setup with a 34x17t. I can't tell you how much fun I have whipping a little 26" hardtail around. She really shines when it gets tight, and tests your nerves when it's open and rocky. The only time I wasn't smiling was at the top of the so called "Tomahawk Climb", at that moment I was swallowing my own vomit.
Who named that thing anyways? If I have one criticism for Strava, it's got to be the inability to change a poorly named segment. In the decade I've been riding this trail, I have never once heard of anyone calling it the Tomahawk.
Big thanks to A-Lo for the lovely company and the fresh stroopwafel.
