Is like going from checkers to chess. You must think more, but consider less. Moves must be caculated in three and four steps, vice one or two.

So sayeth the Fixer, "I just ride."
Sound like driving a stick vs an automatic

Very good! Ironically, I drive and prefer an automatic.
Statisticaly, I wonder of those who do actually drive, who drives auto and rides fixed?

I drive a fixed gear car. ;)
Actually I had an old Jeep that I drove around for a week with a bad slave cylinder (the clutch would not disengage) which is probably the closest you can get to a fixed gear car, I could however shift, you just have to make sure the engine's RPMs are the same as the gear you are shifting into's RPMs. I killed the engine at stoplights and started it in first upon a green light, thankfully the starters in Jeeps are ment to power the vehicle from time to time. You also get to know your gear ratios that way.

I always thought of it as going from oral sex to full penetration.
The end result is the same, both are great, but it all depends on what kind of mood you are in.

Depends where on if you're the giver, or the reciever, and where the load goes as well, doesn't it?
