On the commute home, for the first time this year (yep, all year), after passing countless others, I finally got overtaken by a fellow commuter, and not even on a damn e-bike. Road bike, fully clad in cycling clothing like me and super skinny (aka super fit - NOT like me). I feel broken, I used to rule the cycle path I'm using to work I blame it on the spiked tires with their massive weight and rolling resistance...
Yep! Cost a little more, but money goes to funding for bicycle access infrastructure. Ha. Good to have a scapegoat. That's the real reason I ride a cyclocross bike. When I rode a single-speed mtn bike (had a pretty low gear for offroad), I had to get used to getting passed by old ladies on comfort hybrids on the greenway while I was riding to the trails.
