Atlanta people
 

Gonna visit a friend there for a few days. Wont have my bike but was wondering if there are any decent LBS in the city. Any carry fixie stuff at all?
My friend doesnt ride so he knows nothing.
Is there much of a fixed gear scene there at all? How many riders there?

thanks :)

Faster Moustache (for bike fun, not an LBS) or something...

my friends Ira and Andrea just passed through there on their bike trip around the US. Looked fun

Faster Moustache? Whats that?

thanks

Any other info from anyone else would be great too. :)

little 5 points- check out outback bikes. not exactly display cases filled with shiny cogs and hubs, but langsters and pistas on the sales floor, and good people.

Cool, ill check it out. Thanks

I guess i was thinking there were more people riding fixed gears down there. :(

are they going north or south? i lost the link to their blog, but i've got space for them to crash and a cold beer for em if and when they roll through dc.

I'm usually not one to complain about people not searching but these "what shops should I check out" threads are stupid.

all you need to know and more

Hey thanks. I admit, i dint search :(
Now that i click..i remember that thread, vaguely.
Seems like there's a decent group of disgruntled fixed gear riders there.

There's quite a lot of folks riding fixie here, mostly midtown/downtown/east atlanta. Faster Mustache is probably the most open bike community I know of in the city, and has plenty of members who ride fixed. Also, Atlanta Velo Exchange up on Collier at Howell Mill has lots of track stuff, I bought my wheelset there, and they have sponsored some FM events like the annual 24hr race.

Don't forget your local neighborhood bicycle cooperative
