Got into fixed riding this winter, challenged myself to ride 1000 miles this year on my 1988 schwinn Premis. Built a rear wheel with a flip flop hub, and I’ve been cruising ever since.

I signed up to do the half century (50k) as a challenge for me on my birthday, but once I was riding with the pack, I got caught up and did the whole 100k.

A bit sore in the sitbones and groin area, but overall feeling really good!

I was the only one riding single speed, let alone fixed! Got some props and shoutouts along the way though.

10/10, Will do again next year.
