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)

Maybe you should try a few RR's.
There's plenty in NorCal.

PS. I used to think I was a climber until I started racing.

Riding as a group makes it. Since there are a good number of us, the drivers can see us a lot easier. For the most part, the streets are also lit up pretty good. I'll be honest, the first ride I went on was a little hairy since I wasn't used to it and I even wrecked OTB. Still probably the most fun I ever had on two wheels, and now its like second nature.

We aren't riding on turkey day, but we are the next week.

Message me if you're interested in doing it. I love it but hard getting people onboard since you pretty much need a brake for the descent.
