On the singlespeed. Ripcat's birthday ride. Cool and wet, was rained on only during the last 1/4 mile, great timing! First time i've done this loop with a 2:1 gear ratio. It hurt, hurt like hell. Trail is in great shape, thanks Metal Mike for all the work you've done on the trail this year! Accompanied by The Believer, Ripcats, Jennyjo and GT4 Champ.
