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)

cool. That is a long and fast journey. Did any of your body part hurt after the trip ? Where you sleep ? Is it fun ? Did people look at you like you are an alien ? I plan on doing this kind of trip myself in future...
