Yeah where I am is pretty flat and found the spin to the hills on the 29+ soul destroying, hence the set up. I still get the simplicity of the singlespeed, just means I get to where I want to ride a bit quicker so have more time to enjoy the fun bit.
I suppose I could always put the bike on top of the Audi....but I dont have an Audi.

I do have a car but I've always hated the idea of driving to the hills to ride.

I've got two singlespeeds here and would like to stick knobbies on one and try riding the Chiltern Ridgeway without luggage. But the start is about 50k from here so, not that keen doing another 6hrs out/back.

I have got the train down to Chippenham and ridden back a few times via Streatley and then a loop through the singletrack in the Chilterns.

Chippenham -Avebury is a flat 8 miles along an old railway.

Agreed about driving - try to avoid it.
