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)

Bikes: Too many bikes, too little time to ride

i'm 24 and resentful of the fact that i am grouped with the 19-24 bracket since most my peers are in the mid-late 20's.
