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)

Ooh, temporary, not as cool. I don't think I can be seen going with you to Starbucks anymore. Temporary tattoo people might have to stick with getting coffee from a street vendor cart. OH SNAP.

For commuting/groceries, I wear my jersey (I love the damn thing) and soccer shorts. Longer rides get chamois. Bike is permanently set up with clipless.

for the summer, SPD-SL's, a bib, and a wool top. SPD's when school starts, i might wear regular clothes with cycling-specific (rapha) underwear if it's cool enough, but if i know i'm going to sweat a lot, a bib with shorts over it.

what i really want is a pair of outlier shorts or pants.

for commuting - i have to rock shorts (no cutoffs) and t's then change to work clothes - i'm a sweaty motha ****.
tooling around - whatever i'm wearing.
longer rides - i'll break out the bibs and jerseys, but that also usually calls for the geared bicyclette.

regular clothes - boxer briefs
bibs - rockin the skin/chamois friction.

when i ride my fixed gear, i will usually wear a pith helmet, red fishnet t-shirt, a tuxedo jacket with tails, furry leopard skin hot pants (with the fur on the inside), knee pads, and combat boots. but only when i'm actually physically riding the bicycle. otherwise i wear whatever clothes i put on that day.
