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)

Today I rode my bike in circles.

Jandro, our friend Francis, and myself managed to get 2nd in the team sprint. Awww yeahhh, first race first podium. I'm quitting bikes while I'm ahead.

Oh.. also got 2nd in a kerin heat, but didn't have enough gas for the next heat to advance to the finals. I need to work on my endurance.

She purposely went aslackin' at my expense during the largest grade of the route to see if I noticed. Considering this was our first time I had no idea until she told me.

A lot of smiles and waves, too bad we couldn't keep it.

Last night was pretty crazy. Started out at one party, then walking down the street, we noticed fire. So naturally we walked over there to find a couch on fire. Then the cops showed up in force, and basically shut everything down. They wouldn't even let people sit on their front porches, like 3 blocks away from where the fire was. Was a bit stoopit.

At that price, you NEED to make it happen. You must have someone you can bum $100 from.

PS - if you do get it, I'd easily pay about $100 for the fork alone.

Today I fixed a flat before my ride, and got a second flat during my ride. Cut the ride short and limped home. Should have went for a run.

Today I swam in the ocean for the first time this year. The water was probably around 45 degrees. Too damn cold, but it felt great. I love being in the ocean.

Used my superb, 51x17 for the flats and descents, 51x20 for the climbs. It was grueling. First century, first time climbing. Had a blast

Figure as much as you paid for that frame you would at least be able to climb those piddly hills without flipping the wheel.
