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)

I see, my bad. I thought he might have been just some white kid with more than he needed.

I forget about all the BU housing. That's still a bourgeois area.

"good ol boy"? Seems you're the one preaching hate, not me.

PS: I happen to think it's wrong for our government to lock people up in concentration camps, then build monuments to the man who did it all while telling us we are free. Sorry.

I know he was talking about your avatar. I'm not presuming anything about you, but that flag doesn't represent anything even remotely good no matter how you slice it. To use a flag that stands for the folks fight FOR slavery and then try to get all PC is a bit conflicted.

political views and all that aside, we all bike, we all like bikes, so lets post more pictures of where you bike, as that is what this thread was designated for.
thanks.

Actually, it stands for States Rights, freedom, and local pride.

Here's where I rode my fixed gear bike today:



Here's where I'll be riding my mountain bike tomorrow:

Roche, could you please refrain from ruining one of the few genuinely interesting threads on Bike Forums of late? Thanks.
