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)

just because half of my miles are done in the spin gym doesnt mean they dont count.....

and if the grease monkey would ever get off his lazy ass and switch me to a taller gear, I would be much faster since i wouldnt be spinning out all the time. <im such an obnoxious girlfriend i wont even do my own mechanics, hehehe>


ps. please stop signing in on my machine, I keep posting under your name
