Possible Ronwalf sighting around 1700 heading south on the MVT just before the Humpback bridge?
Mr. Quads for sure just before Memorial bridge.

55 is way too tight for me…

I’ve found that 38 is my favorite width. Especially since every now and then I find myself having to go through Georgetown as quickly as I can during the height of rush hour.
With 48×16, my cadence is usually somewhere between 85 and 95.
Love the Cinelli.

Those climbs were most likely either 48×16 or 48×17.

The gearing definitely makes me rely on the brake more than I would otherwise. Do my best to adjust my riding so that I don’t find myself in situations that require sudden braking.
The fork, front wheel and handlebar all got replaced after my February crash. I stuck with the Easton handlebar, but upgraded to the more aero fork. Had Bill Mould at Spokes lace a new rim onto the front hub (that man does NICE work).
Now I just have to actually grow some legs…

It is hard to cause others discomfort when you’re comfy yourself?

My saddle/bar drop is about 3.5″. I had the bars lower, but found I used the drops a lot less.

I love your bicycles, sir.

I have fit issues. Clearly, I need to spring for a hand-built, lugged track frame. Clearly. Just don’t tell my wife.
Please.

Trying this again, dcv…

Thing 1 (also available with orange chukkers and white cx tires in more fun weather):

The seat to handlebar drop is approx 6 1/2 inches on Things 1 & 2. Plenty comfortable as long as I’m not in the drops—but then, once you get in the drops, you aren’t supposed to be focused on comfort anymore anyway, right?

Let’s try this again…

Another fun event! Thanks again, Zanna and Tim for all you and Bike Arlington do. It was great to see familiar faces and meet some new folks. Twowheels, I meant to welcome you to the neighborhood, but never quite got there.
Cheers all!

Now that you mention it, I can, in fact confirm that the 14th Street Bridge sighting is bona fide. I recognized you too late to say anything. Sorry.

I’ve been asked to research a slightly more fixie friendly variant on what we did. I think it can be done. I just need to explore a little more.

Lookin’ at you, DCV.
