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)

Caught this on The Snob too. This was my expression throughout.



I was especially tickled by the snob's inclusion of the term 'FG dooshclamation point.' It's all entirely too serious for me.
