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)

"being able to watch and learn from someone who knows what they're doing is priceless."

learning is not necessarily intrinsic to watching. It is, however, to doing it yourself.

Not saying that it is. But I prefer to have someone show me once, and to be able to ask questions.
