FIXIE PARK

ROLL OF HONOUR

BRADLEY COX 1980-1996 81 inches

Michael Clemont 2010 77.1 inches

Simon Llewellyn 2011 81 inches

Alex Dirks 76 Inches

Lizanne 81 inches

Tim Llewellyn 76 inches

Assuming this is Waterfall in, Audley out

I was on 77.1 inches

The bike has 81 inches on it at the moment, perhaps I'll swap out the 48 with the 49 I've got lying around....

Of course this shadows in comparison with stanwell park to stanwell tops 81"

What is this?
I ride through the RNP fixed every now and then. 76 gear inches. Usually go in via Audley, out via Waterfall or Stanwell Park. Haven't come out from Audley though.

where did you go in and out liz?

waterfall out, audley in

i went out of the city to waterfall and then back in towards the city through audley.
so waterfall out, audley in? right?

That's Waterfall in, Audley out

lol!!!! funny that you posted it but true! so i dont think Simons counted, he lives in Brighton..

after a loooooong time of having this on my to do list, I finally did fixie park! amazingly slowly, but I did add Kournell in to make it a bit of a longer ride, as I now live in Simon's old place and it would only be a 70km ride or so!
Fixed on 76, Audley in, waterfall out

I do now wonder if stanwell park to tops is a much bigger feat on the fixie century, but have done that too.

Artillery hill would be pretty dam challenging on a fixie

Does 65" on my 'hill ride' around Maroubra count? hahaha.

i've now muscled up to a 68".

But RNP on a fixie is just nuts.

Nah it turns out its quite doable, on 65 it would be easy it slower

You must be creeping up the steep/long hills like a caterpillar on those huge gears???? How are your knees afterwards?. Maybe im just soft/weak but I dont see the point in doing so other than to say you did it?

Yeah I always thought it was just hazardous to try, but if we do the fixie century, it's not as hard as that.
