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)

Over heard at the track last night

"Let's get out of hear before the hipsters make it to (eat place)".

Jim sang it well "the future's uncertain and the end is always near"...

Hope everyone hear supports the new mod. Anything is better than KB was, right?

They were actually hipsters trying to throw everyone off the trail by talking about hipsters ruining everything blah blah blah. Were they wearing shants and riding risers?

I'm going to the velodrome this weekend to check it out. Never been before. I'll have to scope out where the hipsters hang out afterwards.

Here's a hint: if you delete it, let someone know. I figured I didn't post it correctly. Something like a PM saying "Hey jackass, I deleted your dumb ass post".

Well, you might have to be nicer to other folks, for me, I need attention grabbers.

I'm sure he's a nice guy, but he's a bit freaky the way he stares at the girls.

He rides the older road bike, right?

Let it be known that your Basso gives me wood. It is hot.


I got there just after, and watched missing out. I was there with my kid.. I never realized how much she'd grown up until some one mentioned that my girlfriend looked a little young for me.

HAHAHAHA.....
