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 say bro when I'm pairing it with an ironic second half. ie. broseph, brotissery, brotius maximus etc. Also, I say it when I slip and slide, but then its "brah" in a tip of the hat to surfer culture. A yellow plastic sheet and a hose is as close to surfing as I get, so I figure its good enough to use "brah"

haha, yeah, it's kind of a thing to call someone a Bruce in the ski community, especially here in Utah. Anyone from out of town that spent too much on their **** for their abilities is pretty much a Bruce... consequently my dogs name is Brewse.... good thing I don't have any friends named Bruce

when i lived in portland, it was "joey". in columbus it's "chach". or "chotch" or something. i've only seen it written once and the spelling looked dumb.

for the record, i've heard "chad" "bro" and the quintessential "dude-bro" or "dude-brah" to reference these...phenomena...in tallahassee.

if "chad" is used, usually some reference is made to the "chad" having a father who owns a car dealership.

We just call them ******bags, here. Really though, I just had my back wheel bashed in on my commuter. Left it parked on campus on a thursday night. But it's okay because now I finally have a reason to hunt down a new bike and convert it to a fixed gear. I am so excited it's not even funny! It was just a crappy wally bike that got the wheel bashed in, btw; sweet paintjob though... damn.

sounds like 'bruce' in utah is the equivalent of 'gaper' in montana. gaper = out of towner (texan most likely) who buys $1k skis, wears bright clothing, and thinks they're badass when they tell their friends the did a 'black diamond.' the term comes from the forehead gap between the top of their goggles and the bottom of their beanie. i think its a rough approximation of the 'fred' among roadies.

Whoa, did you read the original post? Did this thread just come full circle? Now we just need the bros to show up.
