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)

For a real answer to the "why?" question, trackstand comps come down to one footed, no handed if just no-handed goes on for too long.

Putting a foot or hand on the front wheel seems like cheating. Unless you're trying to do a two-foot trackstand-variation or a one-foot-one-hand trackstand, of course.

Damn you caught me.... Oh well at least it's not as embarrassing as being rejected by the anonymous sex crowd. They are desperate by definition.
