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 hope the tireflys were the ones that look like spiders clinging to the spokes.

nah just the green UV ones. the spiders would look great on my wheels.

and my bike doesn't vibrate enough to set them off. i'm kinda pissed

btw paceline is great but i won't go anywhere but friendly now, especially to have work done. they're absolutely amazing.

I got my RIDLEY cross bike with full ULTEGRA for less than the cost of the frame (2,600 dollar savings).
