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 would be scared riding in sandles with my toes that close to the spokes. Seems like a recipe for disaster.

Grab handlebars, get a running start, step on the little platform above the rear wheel, then catch the pedals.

Ever have to make a speedy getaway on your fixed gear? Much like that, only with more acrobatics involved. To get down, do the inverse steps.

I really admire your graphics skills, and give you kudos on what you did...but it was inappropriate and should not be attempted by anyone else.
