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)

we could meet at Union Pool, head up and over the Queensborough Bridge, do a lap or 2 in Central Park, head down 2nd to Delancy, cross the Williamsburg Bridge and then have a toast back at Union Pool.

I am down to meet up where ever the most people can meet up.
depending on where the arc is located 1pm tomorrow (Saturday) is good... but 1:30 would be perfect.
I live right around the corner from Union Pool, so if anyone wants to meet up there and then head over to the arc, send me an email or, just show up at union pool around 1ish... I'll be the guy with the bike.
