If anyone here did the MS Ride in October like I did, they saw one of the coolest bikes ever. The guy had a low rider chopper style fixie with a red-white-and-blue gas tank and everything. It was amazing. Of course, my first thought was "How is he going to make the climb on that thing at Fort Tryon?" but nonetheless a classic bike with a classic look.
The issue of Cycling Plus UK from October had a whole section devoted to the lowrider phenomenon in England. This one ain't goin' away any time soon...
