It does look a little funny but function > form in this case -- Havent had a seat stolen since I moved here almost a year and a half ago.

Rode around Lake Tahoe fixed... ~73 miles and 4500' of climbing, at an elevation I'm not at all used to. Wasn't as painful as I was expecting, but was still a bit painful. More fun, though. Love these random bike sculptures scattered all around the South Lake area.

Jlafitte nailed it. Just a bit of chain in an inner tube for security reasons -- a must here in SF unless you like seatposts up yer butt

What crankset is that? Hope you don't mind my questions.

Went out to Lake Chabot today, and got in waaaaay over my head.
At the end of a bunch of rolling gravel hills with a bunch of 15%-18% grades, and at the top of this 20+% paved hill. This is before things got really ****ty.

Alternate view

Got separated from my friend, and I thought I was following him here. Tight, rocky, rooty singletrack with 25mm tires is ****ing terrifying.

There was a drop of what seemed like a couple hundred feet off to the right. The path was pretty much as wide as my handlebars.
