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)

After a very short ride. I haven't been feeling very well for the last couple of weeks but it was nice to be able to get out for a bit. Sorry for the crappy iPhone photo.

for the most part, they seem a lot cooler than they actually are. the roads and drivers around here suck so im trying to spend more time in the woods lately

that spot for instance is a little trail maybe 1000(generous)ft long, the one from the other day is a few miles long though, and much more than me+this bike is equipped to handle

Had some wicked thunderstorms last night, which made for some great naturing today.

Meeting people is easy. This ride was with the owner and mechanic of my LBS.

Stunning. Classic simplicity. Bikes will never look as good as they did then.

Nice to see that you brought a spare helmet
