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)

My Nitto B132 bars are great for long rides, like them enough to shim them into the 26 stem on my Big Block

I still have no idea what raw denim is, outside of being really expensive.

Finally redid cables/housing on my sscx bike and swapped bars. I need to find a silver 120mm Thompson stem someday so it matches again.

I haven't even worn denim since the late 80s (and that was when denim was just denim).

True.

I still get a kick that this community is unusual in that sense. Total strangers united by a common love, but still real people.

I have to ask, what do you wear instead?

In Europe I wear industrial cargo pants for work, but in the US it is almost a uniform, in industrial settings to wear jeans and a "golf" shirt.

After 505 FG-only miles this year, I bumped up my gearing from 59" to 62", rather than going straight to 71" as I usually do most after most winters. Gonna spend a little more time building that "constitutional wind" before getting back on the bigger gears.

I also drank a lot of coffee with coconut oil in it today.

I know it's a S13 but you're in Indiana. Remember that. #USDM hahaha

If the steering wheel is on the left, it's a 240sx.
