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)

If you live on the west coast and have access to an airplane, train, or car, you should really try to be here.
I'll buy anyone coming from any state other than CA a drink on Friday night. Wait, no, I will get anyone coming from out of state wasted on Friday night (since saturday after-race will have drinks). It may be tequila from a flask or beer at a bar, but if you come from out of state, you will get drunk and we will ride bikes.

so, if we're all heavy drinkin' the night before, and we're pretty much all gonna be hungover, we're gonna do this race how??

sounds like a great challenge... how to hang out with BF'ers and still shake a hangover.
