I remember my first fixed gear ride. I had carried all the parts to the bike coop and built it up, but I forgot the saddle and seatpost at home, so I rode the 2-3 miles home standing up. The whole time I was thinking "oh man, this sucks alot" and "I hope this isnt this bad once I put a seat on it."
It wasn't as bad with a saddle, by the way.
