This is pretty much it for me.
I wanted to go back to riding bicycles, but I realized that I never changed gears all that often while riding, so I opted to purchase a fixed gear.
I have not looked back, and it is so much fun.
EDIT: I also planned to try out and make something of track racing.
I really need to make it to the track soon, but it is so cold and rainy here recently. :'(
