Hehe same thing happened to me, although it wasn't so hard to take them off. It was the only thing I had to do on my bike over all winter, except putting oil on the chain. I love a fixed gear for that.

Talking of winter bikes. I found the 40x17 gear too hard on windy or snowy or tired days. I know... So I put a 2:1 gear on the fixed. It's slow but fun!
