Anyone else out there who enjoys not being able to coast in the big mountains? I ride everywhere with a 32-18
gearing and love it. if you have tips with coping with big downhills and such let me know as well.
(modified to include any off road fixing)

coasting helps! Just kidding. I've ridden fixed now and then but it's definitely not my thing.
