Bikes: '73 Schwinn Varsity, 1964 Schwinn Racer, 1954 Schwinn Jaguar, 1950's Puch Bergmeister, 1980 Schwinn High Plains, 1973 Flandria, 1980's Diamondback Sorrento, 2001 Jamis Aurora

Just curious, but why take a geared bike out and subject all the moving parts to water intrusion when the fixed gear laughs in the face of bad weather? I rode fixed all winter, from 27 below to 12 inch snows, and had nary a mechanical problem. Just curious, not making any assumtions first...
