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)

This is awesome. This kid has so much positive energy and is doing so much to just get kids stoked on bikes. I love it.

Yeah that would be great if some philanthropist could donate the funds to help him open his bike coop/computer center.

I believe in the comments of the video there was talk of setting up a donation system to get money for them specifically to start up their own LBS/after school center like he was talking about.
