I find fixed gear riding to be fun, but I'm not that hooked. I ride my bike into work one or two days a week. I've ridden the fixie into work only once so far. I guess I just like my commuter bike best. I went out for a weekend ride with a couple of friends and darned nearly took my commuter bike, because it's set up so well. I did end up taking my road racing bike (12 speeds), and I'm glad I did. We went fairly hard.
