SLC used to have a CRAZY straight edge scene... most of the shows i'd go to would get ruined by a bunch of crazy, violent straightedge crews. it was awful.
i go back occationally to visit old friends and to get tattoos (great shops out there!). i never see fixies out there. maybe they are just too busy with their wives to ride bikes.
There are actually a ton of fixies out here: All the messengers (at least the ones at LMI), most of the bike collective board of directors, probably most of the bike punx, and a bunch more. And more and more I see people riding fixed in the city.
