I'll believe it when I see it. I've never gotten a single comment from someone of the female persuasion about my fixed-gear.

Unless "Get a car!" screamed from a passing SUV counts.

Must be an urban thing. I think fixed-riding in general is a lot more popular in urban environments. Guess w/o messengers spreading the fixed gospel, it just doesn't occur to most folks in the burbs.

I have seen/know of *one* other fixed rider in the town I live in, and there's quite a few cyclists here. We even have a pretty well known annual road-race (Redlands Classic), and the olympic trials were held here this past summer. So it's not as if we don't have cyclists. Just not too many transportion-minded (Seems a lot of those who ride fixed, ride 'em for transportation.) riders.
