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)

Spring is HERE!

Took 2 different rides today involving muddy roads and skinny tires. When I got home this was the scene. Anyone else want to share some photographic evidence of spring and bikes?




P.S. I'm feeling much less grumpy now.

It'll snow here as soon as the existing snow finishes melting. It'll melt and we'll all rejoice, and snow and we will mope. It'll snow a few more times just to break our spirits, and make us think winter will never end, but TODAY it's spring.

I put my new Phil-set on my summer bike and ran errands in a long-sleeved shirt. No jacket, no toque, no wool underwear. It was marvelous. Simply mahvelous.
