  1. I've been riding the SS exclusively for the past 2 weeks.
    Today, I was just not into it. It was hot (95 deg F, w/ a
    100 heat index), I only had 6 hrs sleep, and had a long day.
    So at the trails I couldn't concentrate, I was falling,
    sliding, unable to hit some hills, and got really tired. I
    only road 5 mi. It's just one of those days.

    But at least I rode! 🙂

    Good for you and at least you didn't get hurt.

    Well, that's okay. You got your one bad ride of the year out
    of your system =)

    Mix it up, unless you plan on switching exclusively to SS.
    Also take that shock off of the front of that thing. It's
    only an impediment.

  5. Get out off the hot and nasty NC.

    I put a real chain tensioner in lieu of the rear der. acting
    as one, and switched to 32f/16r, and put a new head set on.
    So I wanted to try to see how it rode with the new parts. No
    more chain falling off. I'll stick with the (free) shock
    fork for now.

    Yep, I believe I'll ride the FS this weekend.
