No. I believe that it is of some interest and value for single speed cyclists to know, just exactly which cities are single speed friendly and accomodating...and which ones are not so accomodating.

Some single speedsters here have pointed out how their city is not so accomodating. Others, have pointed out how their city's geography or topography is single speed accomodating only in specific regions. Therefore, if someone does think "Oh great! I now have the chance to post because of the city I live in...", that's great! That's exactly what I'm looking for! I want to know which states and cities are the best for single speeds. That's the whole point!

Within other forums here in BF, Newbies frequently ask about what type of bike should they get. Often times, it's in either the Commuting Forum or the Road Cycling Forum. These Newbies sometimes have limited funds to invest (sometimes less than $300). Well I can't very well recommend them a brand new road bike for that amount. However, I can recommend them a decent single speed for that amount and feel completely justified in doing so. There are quite a few really decent, brand new, single speeds that can be purchased for just about that amount.

If I know which city or state these Newbies live in, I can with good conscience, offer them a viable alternative in the option of purchasing a new single speed, instead of a new road bike, or a new hybrid, which will most certainly be more expensive.

That's what's really good about single speeds. They are generally less expensive and require less maintenance than multi-geared bikes, because they're so simple!

That's why I like them so much!
