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)

1988 Nishiki Backroads w/ coaster break. Threw this together one night for fun, the frame had been rotting in my garage for 2 years, still dont know whos it is....

Also skidding is pretty much the only way to stop.

Wrong thread unless unless you took a ride around your living room.

English is such a contextual language.

Highly successful bike camping trip with the wife. Awesome cabin.







NY Strip with blue cheese. (bacon-wrapped asparagus was already consumed at this point.

There have been some awesome pictures recently. Makes me realize how boring most of my rides are... I need to get out more.

I was in Chicago Saturday (my first time ever) and was aboule to spend a good part of the day riding around. It was cold and windy and over cast and I was severely under dressed. Good times though.

I didn't get any good pics.

3,300 ft of climbing in 12 miles, supposedly with a 6 mile section of 8% grade. Not sure how that compares to normal mountainous riding as I am from Florida. But it was amazing!



Another ride with coworkers along a river and saw a bunch of bald eagles.

(This is my preferred way to skin a cat, but there are others. My instructions are optimized for Google Chrome.)

1) Sign up for flickr.com. Upload your photos there and click on the one you want to post.
2) Click on the "download" icon on the lower right corner (looks like an arrow pointing down at a horizontal line), then "View all sizes".
3) Click on the desired size. Medium (800 pixel width) or Large (1024 pixel width) is usually good.
4) Right-click on the image and select "Copy image".
5) Come back to bikeforums.net, right-click in the text box, and click "Paste".

Boom, done.

If you host on imgur, there's a link that you can copy/paste onto here that shows the image. Link is labeled "BBCode (message boards and forums)"
That's how I do it.
