Now will you just agree with me! I know none of your mom's womb's came with a fixie inside it so you could practice for your delivery room debut.
I mean I can unlearn the years of freewheel riding but again, WHY BOTHER. There seems to be no real benefit for going fixed, like everything you can do on your fixed I can do better on my SS, (and faster). Keep in mind I don't live in a city and there are hills all around me.
odd, i would've thought a mtb rider would understand the concept of "i do it because it's a blast".
but seriously, we're talking about a type of bicycle that five year olds learn to ride on. this isn't rocket science here... if you're having trouble riding your track bike on the street, take it slow at first.
i'm sure you'll start to get the hang of it in a few days.
