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)

Riding In Raleigh?

Moved to Raleigh, NC a couple of months ago. Anyone here in Raleigh?

check out all star bike shops in ridgewood. I know that just about all of the employees ride fixed. they probably could hook you up with a group to ride with.

i've ridden in raleigh before. they had an alleycat there over the summer. don't know much about it, but seems like there are some decent shops around and some okay people. there are a few people on here from durham, so i'm sure they could give you some more info.

the people at all star seemed pretty cool. there was an article in the "Independent" about bike polo that alluded to local bike shops with the scoop on location. i would love to play (I never have), so maybe they are my best bet, unless someone here plays.
