Singlespeed & Fixed Gear - Is this spring/summer going to be worse for fixie/forum newbs?

Not like I'm better than anyone else, I was a newb once too.... waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back in the day. Anyway, what are your predictions for the fixie trend this year?

After a few number crunches I've come to the conclusion that this summer will have

I dont know man. My summers are usually free of html code.

I don't know what you're talking about : )

I always look forward to the 'which messenger bag has the best stash pocket to hold my pbr and pie in' possenger threads. Gives me hope for humanity while awaiting the return of Schwinbikelove. Come back...

look at the bright side, more pics for the jk@ss thread and people to be pointlessly mean to...

It's all about the road bike for me this summer.

summer is meant for mountain bikes.

who cares its a forum

oblige some, insult others. if a newb knows anything about a bike you wont think they're a newb anyway.

That was exactly my thought. Yep, I have been riding my road bike more and more. This is the first time in hmm, wow, eight years I guess, that I won't be spending the summer in a major U.S. city. Jeez, that is hard to believe it was that long. Anyway, I find once I leave the city I care and am faced with the fixed gear bandwagon spring/summer spree a lot less.

Dude, PBR is so last year. Schlitz is making a comeback.

Just the kiss of the hops! Schlitz got me through a rough summer a few years back. Was working at a restaurant and it wasn't a whole lotta fun...but there was a booze store directly next to it and they sold Schlitz six packs for a few dollars. Wonderful!

Of late I've been drinking Genesee 40s. Not for style points, but because they are a $1.66 and it tastes excellent, for the price. When I visit friends in NC a bar they frequent sells Genny Cream Ale as an import! $4.50 a bottle. In NY State Creamers are $2.99 for a six pack.

this summer is gonna be bad.
bsync already reports the pistadex at a "robust" 550.

When I first read this, I thought you wanted to be assigned the internet tough guy, a title you're aboviously striving for. Thought you were looking for a 2nd on that motion. You got my vote, buddy.

There is definitely a good way and a bad way to be a noob. With some of them you can tell that even though they don't know anything yet, they are making a sincere effort. They ask good focused questions that don't require essay length answers; they seem to get some of the basic fundamentals of common sense, etc. Those ones are fine.

that is disgusting. genny is some of the worst piss beer I've had. I had a friend who would drink 12 packs of genny lite like they were water. ugh.

Her.

oh yeah. duh.

It's nice to see a senior member acting like a senior and not a newb :rolleyes:

Lately I've been having more and more random strangers, bike people and not bike people, asking me about my bike.

Riding to work today a dude who had to be about 70 said "Riding one of those fixed gear bicycles to work huh? That must not be fun on the hills!"

I told him I love hills!

A surfer/homeless guy asked me last week what happens when I need to change gears for a hill...
