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 used to be just a regular guy.

one day i was thinking that fixed gear bikes were kind of cool. next thing I know I get an IRO and a chrome bag. now I live with Jerome, who can pound my hot bubble butt so nasty.

Yeah, he got married a while back.
But that's not why he's left the forum.
He just got sick of the bull****.

Shocking, I know.
