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)

In all frainess, if I need to take a break I find very little difference in just spinning (just keeping up with the pedals) and coasting, so the thought of that doesn't bother me much. If my mind gets completely changed when i ride a fixed, I give you permission to call me a stupid fool and give me a virtual slap.
If you already know everything, then just go do whatever you f'n want and stop wasting people's time.
