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)

I save all receipts for bike parts, in case it ever gets stolen (the bike...not the receipts).

All the new tires I've gotten since the late 1990s have been ordered online so I can print out receipts whenever I want.

My bikes aren't insured so the most I'll get is a "tough luck, kid" from the police if they ever show up(they won't).

I also gave it some thought and I'm thinking I'm going to need a third fixed bike when I start racing next year. Track bike, commuter bike and then a distance bike. Now to decide on what bike.

Do I really have to add "functionalization" to my Google dictionary?

Are there no other surface chemists in this world?

I'll also bet that a greater percentage of cyclists are atheistic pot smoking vegans who vote green than the general population as well.
