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)

Well congrats again. I'm so happy for you two. Give us a ring next time you're in DC. Same goes for anyone else from Chicago/NY/SF/Boston/etc ... I haven't been very good about staying in touch, and I miss you folks.

Awesome! Congrats to you, Julie, Ben, etc. Bikes + people you like = awesome.

Also, for those who missed Shants' clothing choice at the MNG back in '05...

Nice one - haen't been on BF in ages but it's a nice reminder of what it used to be like (although, given that I only observed from the UK it wasn;t quite the same for me)
