Here goes ... I THINK YOU'D BE FASTER RIDING GEARED! Whew—I'm glad I got that off my chest. All right, that said, you don't care about your time this go around anyway, so forget that I even wrote that and ride singlespeed. Man, I'm such a stick in the mud.

I know exactly what you mean. I had the same revelation this year in my 3rd 1/2 ironman. I didn't care about time, I just wanted to do it, and the best thing was that my wife and I crossed the finished line together. So, she beat me by about 20 minutes... but it was the best race of my life. Good Luck. I know exactly what you mean. I had the same revelation this year in my 3rd 1/2 ironman.

You never sit during a climb on a SS, since you're always standing and pumping the handles. And during the descents, you're standing to absorb the hits. Just get rid of them and show off them magnificent quads! Of course, you would need to find somewhere else to carry your patch kit... Good luck Fatty! Good luck to the rest of the Alpine-area crew too! Sub-9's for all of you! And a speedy recovery to your sis & nephew.
