Wiggle 2011 New Forest Sportive ... on a Single Speed
I'm doing the above ride this Sunday. Anyone else going to be tackling the relatively flat-looking terrain of the new Forest on a single-speed or fixie? I'm sure I can't be the only one. Hope I'm not.
If my brother-in-law speeds off on his carbon-fibre road-bike I might need some company

Does it go up Balderwood?
If so, not cool on SS
i did the Gridiron audax(ish) last Oct round the new forest, wish i'd taken my single speed.. not a hill in sight. you'll be fine.
I did the Lionheart the other week on a 2spd and didn't see any bikes with less gears than that...
I can't imagine you'll be the only one facing up to the challenge with a single speed bike, report back and let us all know how many fixies and single speeds and any other non-race bikes show up!
