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)

Philly boys...

I'll be in town for U.S. Pro this weekend. Anybody up for grabbing a beer on Saturday or Sunday after the race?

I'll also be at the track in T-Town on Friday night.

PM or email me if you want to get together.

resched for Chicago...I'll lend you a bike and some beers. Hell, I'll let you keep the beers once you finish them. But the bike stays here.

I get that, but I gotta work during the race. Last year, I had to keep homeless guys from chowing down in the corporate hospitality tent. I'm hoping for something a little cooler this year. Maybe driving the team car?

Hell yeah.

And by the way, props to superchivo for setting me up with a cat's eye view for the CSC Invitational last weekend. Flying around the course with the peloton whilst on the back of one of the race motos was incredible. Although it did take a bit of willpower not to taunt Chris Horner as he chased.

whilst
Have you been drinking tea again? I thought I heard someone shout "Schiek is coming down the finishing stretch like a grand prix motor car" from the course Sunday, but I was sure it was my imagination. Now I see that I must have been mistaken, Phil - if that is your real name. Or is it Paul?
