Remember, FG bikes are the gateway drug to cycling
For me it's the other way around. I'm the out-of-towner in this forum. I have a SS bike, but most of my miles are commuting on my hybrid. Aside from the SS and hybrid, I have four other daily riders, all of which are C&V. There does seem to be a bit of a wall around this forum, but honestly I think it's a wall you guys build around yourselves sometimes. I think carleton is right- get out once in a while. I think you may find that hipster FG riders aren't so different than most riders. Except for the road racers. Just.... don't go there.
