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)

People used to swear that Janoski's stretched out like a half inch once broken in but I won't ever buy Nike because I hate what they've done with skateboarding.

I rock Adidas shoes that I can't remember the name but they look like the Ease but not a skate shoe, I can pick them up for twenty bucks a pair here at their outlet. Best skate shoe ever, remind me of the old Circa AL50 before Circa went downhill.

I woke up on time, but it is 34 degrees out and there is a dusting of snow on the ground. I'm driving. It's the middle of April and I rode home from work in a tshirt on Monday. Ridiculous.

Today I saw an old friend for lunch. I am sporting a new goatee so I expected a few comments. Instead I arrive and he's rocking a MASSIVE moustache long enough to be waxed/braided. I was totally outgunned.

I do this pretty often too but I usually cook them up with some finely chopped onions, various hot peppers from my garden and fresh cilantro, topped with a dab of sour cream.
