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)

take back the streets? laugh out loud.
"hey, bike dudes! tired of our streets getting clogged with toxic fossil fuel burners? let's clog them with drunk, traffic-violating bandwagoneers!"

i hope, for all of our safety, that everyone on 2 wheels is giving respect if they expect to receive it in return. screw this us vs. them hipocracy. be cool, alright?
