RR: I miSSed it!

Wow I have not been on my SS for so long that
the tires on it were flat. I had a ride plan with a
couple of friends last Tuesday so I took it with
me. Like they say, "it's just like riding a bike"
except in this case it IS indeed riding a bike.
I felt at home with it; I was turning well, climbing
well (short hills) and descending well. I'd swear
it handles better than my FS. I'll make it a point
to ride it at least once a week now!

I noticed a similar thing not too long ago, although my tires still had
air in them! I did a long (3 hours) ride with a guy who's a really
strong SS rider with lots of technical stuff and boy was I was wiped
afterwards!

After that I made a commitment to do at least one SS ride a week. So far
I've been doing at least that (for a month or so).

You should be thrown in jail for bicycle abuse! Give your SS more love!

It should. Suspension can make handling more mushy. My first bike didn't
have a suspension fork, but I added one later. One of the most noticeable
differences was how much more poorly it handled on sharp corners.

I got probation since I promised to ride
it once a week now.
