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 got dragged by the sqrl into taking my neighbor's children to Disney on ice.
Thankfully I was the odd man out without a ticket and I ended up recouping my losses at the swap meet next door where I found these:


This is about half of what that was there.
Some with the clipless cutout and some without.

Of course we bought each multiple pairs.

Move to the upper midwest or North East during winter, plenty of cool* to go around.

*Cool as in freezing your your plums off cold.

Toppled over while stopping at a red light. You never win, you just do a little better each time.

Took the son out for a ride and used my new to me SS CX bike

A blast, and as added bliss, 60 degree temps before the next arctic blast.

Met a pretty down lady at the bar. Gave her my number, got a kiss on the cheek when she left. It's amazing, the power of healthy eating and a positive disposition on a man's luck.
