Fixie Chicks are not rational people.
But I salute them, us (although we resent being classified as a group).
I salute our choice of elegance over common sense.
I salute our intrusion on a predominantly male world.
I salute the importance we attach to one small cog.
I salute our ragged beauty. And, as a Fixie Chick,
I swear and aver I will not roll my pantleg down.
