I actually got my copy on Friday, but I haven't been home since then.

Anyway, Friday was also the day that I was picking my bike up from the LBS with my new crankset. So I took my never-opened Primo chain tensioners to see if I could barter with the owner since I know the shop does a good deal of BMX business. But before I went in I saw a relatively young kid, maybe 14, tooling around on a BMX bike outside. So I offered the tensioners to him and he was happy to take them. I know, I know. That's pretty lame, and really not far from the usual for me. There are just too many people locked away in their four-wheeled machines around suburbia at night.

So:
I owe you at least one much better story.

PS - Riding Fixed is pretty awesome. It has inspired me to take a more zealous approach to embarrassing over-serious, lycra-wearing jerks.
