I thought it was just me.

I ride with so many strong riders, including some single-speeders, that I start to feel like a bit of a pansy with all my tiny gears. In fact my husband doesn't understand how it's physically possible to stay upright and ride as slow as I sometimes do going up steep stretches. But that's EXACTLY how I feel. I want every last gear!
