Moving to Austin
Im moving back to Austin . . . after an EXCELLENT couple years in Chicago. I had no choice I have to leave. Im bummed about leaving Chicago . . . but Austin is always a great place to return. What are you cats down there riding. . . im running 41x14 now . . . assuming ill need somthing smaller?? Does anyone know what’s up with the Austin CM?

Bikes: Moyer Cycles #1 - A fixie of course.
I'm running a 53x18....use to run 53x16. Did 53x18 on the ride for the roses - no sweat.
Austin CM is OK. If school's in - there are about 20-30 people. If school's out, I've been 1 out of 4 people there. The upcomming halloween one should be great.
The guys from Bicycle Sport Shop try to put on an alleycat every month. They are pretty damn fun. Next one is the Thursday the 28th. I'll post a flyer and/or details when I know more.
