Ahhhhh ... BG ... I miss it every day. I spent 3 years there doing a degree in Popular Culture and teaching for the department. Odd, I rode a 12 speed the whole time I was there. That place is flatter than a flat thing and the only real concern for cyclists is, as you mentioned, the wind (and sometimes the snow) ... should've learned the art of fixed gear ridding while I was there and not in the car infested, slightly rolling hills of Atlanta. Well, you know what they say about hindsight.
Anyway, go see Stylex at Howard's and have a mini-pitcher (or three) for me.
