It's also the middle of November which means here in Minnesota we have snow on the ground. but it's destoyed now and has been replaced with a newer brown BMX saddle from my stash. It's a bummer because it was comfortable and had 'cool' points being a Brooks. Took the bike out for a damp ride on Saturday night and the saddle decided to give up the ghost. The sloppy creek mud gives the Klunker credibility. I had a 12oz bevarage, my lock, both of my cell phones, my keys, and some tools in it and was able to ride without a backpack. That frame bag was $15 on Amazon and is awesome. Here it is at 10pm last night when I got home from my ride. Because my hands weren't responsible for any brake or shift levers, I was able to muscle the bike around more, which made the gear ratio more tolerable. I found myself using the bar-ends far more than I expected. I'm pretty smitten there were more than a couple times I was laughing like a child skidding down some hill or splashing through a puddle. The 180mm (I checked, they aren't 175's) cranks are pretty long and will hit things sooner than you expect.

Plus because pedaling backwards causes you to stop, you have to plan out your foot positioning in advance of the obstacle in front of you. Braking modulation? Nope, you have a foot-actuated on off switch. "Mountain biking" with a coaster brake is a trip. The lower gearing and extra clearance of the smaller sprocket would be helpful. I think I should look for a 39t front sprocket because the 44 or whatever is on there is quite large and I definitely chunked some logs with it last night. good enough to be fun, but bad enough to make these pretty tame 'trails' seem like a lot.
