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)

It starts with a blinkie
Coolly rolling to my desk
And then it's over.

teasing with freezing
but then up to sixty-two--
short Halloween day

Rustle on the bike path,
orange and yellow and brown
jersey matches the pond

:cycle:

--------------------------------------
cloud of morning breath
quick look over left shoulder
morning comes too soon
--------------------------------------

dry and crumbled leaf
you travel with me, lowly
earthen ash and dust

--------------------------------------

down this morning hill
legs increasing cadence still
test of faith? or skill?

--------------------------------------

red light, o despair!
for i can only stand there
i have no balance!

--------------------------------------

bullhorns cold in hand
climb the evening hill fast
over all too soon

--------------------------------------
epilogue
--------------------------------------

oh god i forgot
my lights and now i am dead
stupid DST
--------------------------------------
