I rode a s/s coaster brake back in the 70's which was my paperboy bike. Though I ended up hardly touching the roadie and rode the thing everywhere. I got back into s/s later on with a mtb around 2000 or so, and started riding fixed in about 2004 on a road conversion. Since then have had a Steamroller, a beater fixed gear and now mostly riding my s/s Il Pompino.
