Hey all,

Just signed up after trolling various threads for some time now. I'm from Boston, and I can't get enough of riding my fixed gear! Which is kind of a same, considering that two weeks ago some punk made a left turn in front of me and wrecked my bike! I'm fine, but dealing with the insurance company bites the big one. Anyway, i just bought a Surly Steamroller frame off of eBay, so I should be rolling again as soon as it gets here, assuming that I have a new front wheel built up by that time.
So, cheers everybody! Nice to be here and all, ahem ahem.

- Matt

Welcome Matt! (hehe welcome mat) Anyways, hope the other guy's insurance co. is buying you the new bike and wheel. Post pics of the Steamroller in the pics thread in the SS/FG forum when it's done!

Thanks for the welcomes. When I have the new bike up and running, I may take you up on that ride!
