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)

yah, if it was a white peugeot you saw. I was heading to meet two friends (one's another fixie girl) on Bergen and Washington for a ladies' ride to Coney Island for some Nathan's french fries. Learned that maybe cowboy boots are not the best defense against cold and wind. I moved here from Tucson over 4 years ago but can't seem to kick the ****kickers habit! I don't know, maybe if I had warmer socks. I've only been riding since May and haven't figured out the right combo of winter garb yet.

I have never seen a fixie chick in my town, but whenever i make it up to portland i am awestruck, they are everywhere. I think tattoos are just as appealing as girls of fixies, oooh or a chick rocking an old skool vision with a mohawk, or any girl whos not a jackass, actually, some jackassery permitted. what the hell am i talking about, i love em all.

I guess a moderator is removing posts which aren't properly heterosexist in this thread? (Not including schwinnbikelove's.) Is this correct?

well technically, no.
we (the mods) felt that some of the content was "not politically correct" and
did not jibe with the current Administration (soon to be monarchy)
(or is that theocratic monarchy?) and policy. .

oops, wrong reason.

In reality there was some concern over the wording, so ixnay on the edtrhay.
BF is non-discriminatory, hetero, gay, lesbian, animals, whips chains, leather
it's all good.
