Cool ride! And cool bike! Boscos! I've been wondering about those 718 trips. Was it a good bunch? I wish we New Yorkers didn't have to get on a train to get to some decent bicycling.
If I were you I would go up to a triple if you wanna do lots more long rides like this, but at least a double. Every ride I do upstate I end up using all 3 chainrings. I've never had a 1x setup, so I cant speak to what you'd be missing out on. Maybe a greater physical challenge? But two or three chainrings = convenience!
