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)

is the heartstopping chase that the back of the dvd describes in relation to herr doktof bacon's return to the stocktrading floor? if so, not only is that chase not deadly, but there is not much courage in it at all. damn those advertising-blurb creators.

i've been practicing the "slide the saddle" dismount recently.
may i recommend a grassy area for those of you learning.
and lower your seat by an inch or two to begin with.

once you get it though..
its so money.

doncha hate it when people say "that was the best $8 i ever spent" when they really should say "that was the best thing i ever spent $8 on" cos really $8 is $8, and the $8 you spent on that dvd isn't any different than the $8 you spent on like something else, like beer or something. i mean $8 is $8. i hate that.
