Singlespeed & Fixed Gear - The Circular Fatality

It has been reached. A crucible this place is no longer.

If having that god awful eBay thread is such an important factor of riding fixed/single speed, how about someone hosts it offsite and links in their signature line. I was at one time entertained over its "loss" - now it is just pathetic and dragging.

Face it folks - it is over. No speech stolen from John Belushi could ever revive that sickly corpse hanging above, marked appropriately as "sticky." It has been thrown against the wall, and died as a result.

As a side activity, maybe you could all gather and mourn the loss of such a waste of space and go on a fixed gear shopping trip.

And here I thought this thread would have something to do with track racing...

just like this forum might actually contain over 50% LEGITMATE content...go figure.

The preponderance of "eBay" threads lately is rather disheartening.

If it is gone, bid it farewell. If you want it back, get creative. If nothing works, shut up about it already.

It's dead. Let it be dead. And while we're busy letting it be dead, can some mod un-sticky the thing so it can really be dead and resting in the bowels of the archives?

I could ask if anyone has videos of trackstands, or debate the merrits of the bikeshort shammy...

Does this mean you are going to donate $100 to bikeforums as you promised?

While I agree wholeheartedly, I think the nature of this forum and those who frequent it, will never stop kicking until the dull, liquid thud of rotting flesh is replaced with the crisp rattle of bare bones.

It's weird because there are two threads at the top of the forum complaining about people complaining about the eBay thread.

Like I said in the other thread:



I don't see why it's so hard to follow the rules. It's not even an issue, it's so easy. End of story.

No problem. I still owe you for time in Hawaii. There's always a room and generally beer at my house. Though, you'll have to take turns walking the dog.

If anyone else wants to be on the 6 months no probation email list.. email me. Though, pictures of us in the pond won't be great.
