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)

what will probably happen is once they're ready you will be directed to fixedgeargallery.com and will order and pay there. Half the money goes to printing and running the website, the other half goes to me, which will then be donated to charity.

Good deal Mayo. I'll be excited to see the newer version and the new stories. They are probably the best resource for this grass roots effort to expand. I wonder how many hear remember the "Old days" and the precusor to the Riding Fixed stories? Good times back then. Good luck with the new endevor!

If you act now, Mayo will personally call you up and insult you in a homoerotic fashion!

I sent an email to the fixed gear gallery just now asking for an update on when the booklet will be ready. He’s very good about responding back and I’ll hear something shortly. Soon as I do I’ll post it here.

Thanks for your continued support.

As for your book Karstens, would you like cream with that? ;-)

Can someone describe what this is? I've heard of it, but I'm not familiar.
