    Well something weird happened in 2021. I started single speed XC racing and entered a series and today I received my “champion” jersey. I feel kind of funny. I’m by no means the fastest but was consistent and collected my points to earn Sport Class Single Speed Champ. Honestly there where very few riders, but it’s still cool.

    I went private on Strava and just rode and rode in 21.

    And the race bike- Vassago Optimus Ti-

    hell yes it’s cool, congrats man. I’ll take consistency over front of pack speed any day. Dig the bike, have one myself. And another Vassago “in process”.

    First ride (not around the house) went well. She loves it! This is really going to be a game changer for our riding especially as she gets a bit stronger!

    A ride in the sun is always a good way to reduce jet lag.

    Well my 6yo rode 8 miles (mostly paved, some light gravel/dirt) yesterday, which was a pretty good day.

    She's only on a 16" single speed too.

    What is a platform style? I’m assuming you mean hitch rack with trays? 1up is going to be the most recommended there is.

    Wow. I just serviced my fork. They degrade so slowly it’s hard to tell, but after service they feel so much better!
    Thats my huge XL 29 with 2.6 party hardtail. I need to fix my dropper and put it back on.

    Surly looks great.

    Yesterday took out the Chameleon even with it not properly setup (wrong dropouts) and technically underforked and it was still a blast compared the the Stanton.

    Today was out on the ebike on a different trail network and was just a huckfest all day - need to bring my space braces for days like that.

    Was out on my chameleon for the first time in a while. Lovely little bike.

    Look forward to a forthcoming review from you on the new vs old version.
    Never knew doggo specific packs existed. Pretty cool.

    Those Revels are some sexy bikes. May have to coordinate a Blankets ride with @evenslower and see if his buddy can set me up with a demo on a rascal. Not in the market for a new ride but I’d sure like to try one.

    I’ve got a couple riding buddies on Revels when they’re not SS, one of them was on a Following before the Revel. I’m sure we could sort something out to get you some seat time and firsthand insight/comparison.
