Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

52. Fixed for nine years. Generally, I don't come to this part of the forum, as I'm outside the demographic. Just happened to spot this poll.

I'll join that club. I have 2 bikes that are nearly 3 times as old as me, a couple nearly twice my age and some around my age. I also have some that are significantly younger than me.
