as a disclaimer, let me say that I love riding fixed on the road and the track (never owned an ss), even though I spend most of my riding on a geared road bike.

I did the opposite. I think you'll find a nearly equal amount of people in both camps (ss --> geared and geared --> ss)

Sorry, but getting stronger and faster has very little to do with your equipment. Anyone who needs an SS to push themselves physically is probably weak mentally, when it comes to physical exertion.
