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)

Come live in California where everything is super expensive and drought is a slight problem, but at least we don't have pizza grease summers.

Any state that doesn't touch the ocean is what I call a fly over state, except Colorado, that state can stay.

I forgot how cheap NYC is to live in . Our summers smell like hot garbage, but the ladies look nice so its worth the smell and swamp-like weather.
We do have great water though, and bagels, and pizza.

So you can pay sf prices to live, but instead you're stuck on an island. No thanks.

My caad has been having some nasty creaking that was inconsistent. I was terrified that it might be the BB but it turns out it was just a loose crank arm.
