Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

There really is none since I doubt many want to ride a bike with a trailer. At the most, I just lock the bike, but it's not like I'm leaving it out overnight

I unfortunately don't have any pictures, but when I used to ride a rickshaw downtown I once carried 2 300+ women. Or maybe you're glad I don't have them?

I've also carried around 6 or 7, hundred pound women on multiple occasions. Wish I had pics of that. Good thing Missouri is pretty flat!

My girlfriend got this for free from someone at work who was giving stuff away. I was about to buy her a bike too so this came at a cool time. Sweet!

I met her at the train station to haul it back home and fix it up for her. She was so excited. It's her first bike, but I taught her how to ride a while back :bigsmile:

I don't have any pictures but once at work I hadn't noticed my lockring was loose and ended up stripping my hub halfway through a delivery (very stupid of me, I know) so I locked my bike up, ran back to the shop, grabbed my bosses bike (which is probably a 52/53 Leader and I'm 6'3") since it was the only one available. I took the deliveries and went back to my bike, unlocked it, slung my 59 Steamroller over my shoulder and rode back with it
