Comments +/-
+ This is my first attempt, felt good all the way as I didn't get much out of my comfort range, I know the singlespeed with 32-22 gearing was holding me back, but I ride this bike a lot so I just made it fun with no pressure, next time I will ride the race bike with gears.

- Rode with large battery light and camelbak, winter clothing 3 layers, I know the singlespeed with 32-22 gearing was holding me back, but I ride this bike a lot so I just made it fun with no pressure.
