I thought it was wood but it ended up being that fake slippery laminate stuff. I went very slow at first but the bridge seemed to go on forever and I wanted to get off of it quickly so I went a little faster. Poor choice haha. I just got home from surgery so now I'll be looking out the window as we are in the tail end of summer 😂 Thanks for the recovery wishes!!

@@mir2.00 it was definitely an enjoyable ride up until the end haha

Thank you!! Yeah, my front tire lost traction and slipped into the railing and that bounced me back to the opposite side of the railing. Not sure if it was the impact on the ground or railing that caused the break. Also I thought I was riding on wood but it was definitely plastic-like, very slippery!

Broken collarbone :/

Bummer buddy. Quick heals ❤​@@RandyRules

Thank you bro 🙏

It's definitely a vibe! I love the fact that it can take wider tires too. Def gonna try that out in the fall/winter

@@rogerhart612 Not caring about fixie points gets you more fixie points anyway ;) In all seriousness, love to hear that! I love this bike and am super proud to own it ⚙️🤘

I've been thinking about that! Luckily I saved my freewheel and rear brake

48/17. About to install a 15t cog 😳 I already know I’ll probably switch back… but I’m curious to see if I can climb with it haha.

LOL there is actually a couple ways to descend Tabor.. I took the smooth way 🙀 next time I’m up at Tabor I’ll go down the other way, it’s quite amusing haha

Awesome! Not too many of us out on the road!

TYSM for watching! 😁

You rock! As much as I don't like riding in cold weather, I am pretty stoked about descending down that road when the leaves start to turn :)

It’s my favorite place :) When I was new to cycling I went into a local shop to look for aero bars thinking it would make me faster, and the owner of the shop refused to sell me the aero bars and instead told me to “ride more hills” if you want to get fast 😂 really wish I tied that into my little rant haha

😨🔥 that’s wild, i would love to try that sometime but I don’t think my legs are that strong haha

Lmao ya Blue Star is definitely the superior donut!

@@obfuscurity honestly.. I can’t believe I did that either. When I got to voodoo my watch told me to chill because my stress levels were through the roof 😂

Thanks!! I actually will put the overlays back on now. Maybe I’ll arrange them so they don’t take up a bunch of space in the frame. I really like how it looks without it though but at the same time, cadence and speed would be pretty entertaining to watch. I went down a long and steep hill and hit 175rpm during this ride!! I couldn’t use the footage though because it was so blurry haha

Thanks for watching! It was a beautiful experience. Next time I'm there I definitely want to spend some time off the bike to check out some of the views... but you know - time crunch because of the Garmin lol. I don't remember what percentage it was at when I finished.. I was just grateful that I was able to make it back + upload the ride haha. As soon as I finished I recorded my outro and bailed because I was starving haha

Rusty rules!! I LOVE making road bike vs fixed gear videos! It hurts but it's worth it haha. I'm trying real hard to get power meter data in these comparison rides so you know how hard I'm working.. but power meters are expensive haha. ANYWAY you didn't ask for any of that. I have no idea what my gear inches are on my road bike.. I know my ratio on my fixed gear is 2.82 @ 48/17 with 25mm tires... but I don't know about gear inches.. I feel like I should probably know this haha.

Thank you! I should have a couple coming next week! 🤠⚙️

Dude get one! Gettin low and coasting down a long hill is super nice haha

Spinning is winning! ⚙️ 🤠

44/18 and soon 16

@@CSNK2008nice! My first fixed gear bike was a 44/16. I loved it.

Really liked the video!!

Thank you!! Fixed gear is basically the drivetrain having only one gear with no freewheel, meaning the pedals will always spin together with the rear wheels (absolutely no coasting) I rode a road bike for years and it didn’t really make sense to me why anyone would want to ride a fixed gear until I tried it.. it’s super fun, challenging at times but I absolutely enjoy it!

@@RandyRules oohhhh i understand now, it must be interesting, thank you

Fixed gear is a single speed where you cant ever coast, imagine going on a downhill where you hit 70+ km/h and you have to keep spinning no matter what or lift your legs like a clown, if you pedal strike you are boned, you destroy your rear tire to brake very inefficiently, but people swear on their mothers they can feel the chain efficiency difference. Its cool to do tricks like cycling backwards though.

Now that's what I'm talkin' about! I was always feel super accomplished after every fixed gear ride, especially if there are hills involved. Might have to try out that gear ratio, I'm at 48/17 and I'm just grinding up these steep grades

Gang gang ⚙️🔥 Thank you!! 🙌

Haha yeah I’ve been thinking about that. I also really need a wireless mic so I can be more creative with where I mount the camera without all that wind noise, or a cable dangling around 😹

@@RandyRules they have helmet for motorcycle that have built in mic and speaker, dont know if anything like that exist for bikes.

150rpm 💀 Awesome! Yeah I can’t really go much faster than 30mph (comfortably) downhill.. I still have this fear that I’m going to spin myself out or cramp up at such a high cadence for so long.. hence the front brake 😹

48/17 ⚙️🤘

I appreciate you watching and for the comment! I am half Filipino. Ride fast and ride safe!! ⚙️🤘

its this goldenbicycles.com/collections/fixed-gear/products/gc-oil-slick

Steel! It's this exact one goldenbicycles.com/collections/fixed-gear/products/gc-oil-slick Nice bro, can't wait to see what content you make with it!

@@RandyRules That's a really great price and it's really beautiful. There's a lot of beauty in the simplicity of a good fixie.
