cos you were on your fixie
Don't tell anyone, but that's no fixie.
Well... even single-speeding it up Elm Grove sounds like crazy hard work. I sometimes ride fixed up the full length of Stanford Avenue, and that's tough enough!
It's not a single speed either - Sturmey Archer S2C. It's a two speed kickback hub & coaster brake.
Just about enough difference for a low gear to make it up Brighton Hills while not too spinny for flats.
