You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
Had to abandon my MTB commute this morning so dumped the full suss in't car and went for a blat after I'd finished at work.

Now all I need to do is learn how to not mince about anything vaguely downhill or technical 🙄
Oh and I still can't decide if Stravaing is good training / incentive
I'm certainly riding quicker (when and where suitable) and noticed my fitness improved since using Strava for the past 2/3 months or so.
I try not to get carried away but I find it's a good tool, I have a few KOM's and lost some as well, and will be out later to try and get another as I'm in 4th place and 3 seconds away from 1st - yes that is a contradiction I know.
I also use it for running on my own segments.
I've just lost a KOM that I'd regained on Thursday from the same fella.
Part of me thinks yeah it's good competition but a bigger part thinks nah, I CBA.
I got my KOM with a 15 second lead.
It's the 2nd I've taken off the same person in a week, I know he will be out to take them back very soon.
There is one local segment where I'm 1st a friend 2nd and we have both agreed to call it quits as it's a slalom through the trees, and sooner or later one of us will clip a tree with our bars and end up in A&E.
yep your friend's said that. until he decides to call it quits with him in first. 🙂
