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 rode my free wheel fixie today and it felt like my bike was telling me what to do. I quickly switched back and am the master of my own destiny again. I will try again when I am not feeling sooooo.....routine? A yup yup. Also I am going to the Grand Canyon on the 26th and it will not be not good.

He could stand under his own strength at two DAYS old, couldn't balance, but support himself.

I'll see if I can find the link.
