5/9 - 71 Single Speed Miles

OK. I've had it. I've blown 5 tubes with these damned 700x23 tires. I love Conti's, but these 4000 S are impossible to get on a rim.

Saturday's route was really nice. It teetered into the brutal space as I was on the singlespeed with 39x17 gearing. Low for the hills, but brutal on the flat....If I had ridden my geared cross bike with the knobbies, that would have been easier.

Kirkland, Sammamish, Issaquah, Mirrormount Hill (2x), Renton, Bellevue, Clyde Hill, Medina, Kirkland.
