I was influenced by our dearly departed Sheldon Brown to try riding fixed. I tried it and was hooked.

I bought an 89 Trek 660 frame from eBay and built it up as a fixed gear road bike. I didn't want a track bike, as I had no plans to ride on the track (although now I'd love to try it). I wanted a road bike with road bike geometry, brake holes, and water bottle cage bosses. Here it is on one of my favorite country road loops:



After a couple of winters, the finish was getting a little ragged so I had it powdercoated. I tried to match Trek's Race Blue of the mid-80s.




I will always have at least one FG in my stable.
