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)

The only people I see showing up are the 40+ year-old roadies who start their rides at 4:00 AM. If you want to attract the fixie crowd, hold your race at 3:00 PM and make first prize a week's supply of ramen noodles and Totino's pizza rolls.
