Just to keep everything strait Rich was on his single speed and I do believe he also won Districts that year with only one gear, riding against all the other competators with geared bikes. You gotta give props where props are due.
My guess is that Rich wanted a challenge, iirc, he had won a few of those Sacramento Cross races already that season. And, I forgot the mtb's name but from what I was told he was an ex pro.

ReplyDeleteNo doubt, Rich is awesome, thats why I posted a pic of him going into the barriers for us all to study and emulate.
ReplyDeletewell
ReplyDeleteif he would do better with gears...
he should ride with gears
I am sure he is awesome
I love single speeds
love to ride them
love to race them
but if it disadvantages the racer
they may want to question their drive
fashion or function
