Hello from Boston.
Hi folks. Call me Trackhub. I am:
-A fixed gear addict. If you have never ridden one, it is almost impossible to explain what it's all about. Other fixed gear riders will know what I'm talking about though.
-A firm believer in following the rules of the road. There is no defense for not doing this.
We cannot claim equal road rights / privileges, without accepting equal responsibility.
-A long time rider, having "gotten serious" during the '70s bike boom. (And there were so many people riding back then, it seemed.)
-Old enough to remember such things as teletype terminals, dot-matrix printers, and hard drives about the diameter of trash can lids. Magnetic core memory, anyone? ;-)
-Tired of winter. It's only December 1st as I type this, and I'm already tired of winter.
That's about all I can think of, at the moment.

Hi!
I keep stepping up to edge of taking the plunge and obtaining a fixed singlespeed bike. Maybe this spring I will finally do it.
I remember writing my a program using punch cards. Admitably it was only once but still. How about 8 inch floppies?
I am tired of waiting for winter to appear. The icebike is out and I am looking forward to my first blizzard.
Welcome aboard.
