I moved here about 9 months ago, I think it's tight. Got a fixed gear after my city bike thing got stolen and it's been alright, there's some too cool for schools around but that ain't ****. Someone yelling 'get some gears' or whatever is the same as people yelling 'skater ***' at me 20 years ago, just let it ride. The majority of peeps I have met so far have been pretty mellow. And yeah, that Stumptown **** is bangin.'

Andre, what are the spots to avoid as far as cop traps? I'm brakeless and had a cop slow down and turn right in front of me on Vancouver, I think he was trying to figure out how fast I could stop...whatever he did it for, it was stupes...
