This is the seventh installment of Virtual Turkey Burn reports I received this year. NOTE: I VERY lightly edited the submissions where I found a mistake. Images are credited to the authors. Thanks for reading these and for submitting a report if you did so. Remember that some of these reports fall on double-post days, so be sure to scroll down the page to make sure you don't miss any content!
Hi there!
Started the ride early Thanksgiving day. The weather was starting to change and for the subsequent days we fell in a deep freeze. I did all of my 100 miles on my trusty Surly Steamroller. I used 42x15 gearing with 28mm tires. The wind and cold were the biggest challenge but I was motivated and focused. Good riding!!
Thanks Ari! 100 miles on a single speed is no joke! Especially for how cold it got around Chicago, Illinois, where you live.
Okay, there is ONE MORE Virtual Turkey Burn Challenge Report! Check that out tomorrow. Thank you one and all for checking these out. I will have my synopsis of this year's rides and more tomorrow. Keep scrolling the page folks! This is a BUSY month!
