Rollo is not fixed
 

Rollo is a sad clown in a happy face. Not fixed and loving it. Simple in the snow today.

Slag crackled festering icy words, what lies ahead

Is this another haiku thread?

torrid wit torrential and tightly twisting--oh, where are you tomorrow?

No man....See you are in New Orleans... Heard that getting around in a cage is nearly impossible. What's your take on riding after Katrina? Singlespeed or whatever?

Damn right I'm not fixed. No one gets a scalpel close enough to me for that.

Oh... the bike. In case anyone doesn't know, here is the description.

Getting around in a cage was no walk in the park before Katrina. It's definitely gotten worse. A lot of traffic lights are still out, and we have a lot of people concentrated in certain parts of the city.

Riding is somewhat better, though. Fewer cars on the side roads, albeit more construction debris. I have had three or four tire punctures since returning in early October. (Also patched three punctures in tires from the girlfriend's car.)

There are a lot of new bicyclists now, thanks to Plan B (http://planb.bikeproject.org/).

One of the most interesting things about the post-Katrina landscape is that there are nice bikes being thrown out right and left as flooded houses are gutted. I have salvaged a few parts for my own evil purposes, and a friend of mine rescued an old Raleigh Sports three-speed that we are restoring.

I prefer riding fixed in the city. It's flat. But I also put a lot of miles on, ahem, geared bikes.

But I digress.

Rollo is an incredibly annoying way to market a silly-looking bicycle.
