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)

I almost changed it to that literally word for word last week.
Now I gotta come up with something different.

I ride bikes because I own them; I don't own bikes because I ride them.

Dafuq, this is violating your rights! What if you wanted irreversible brain damage as much as the helmet wearing person didn't?

I got back into cycling and heard about the helmet laws..but I figured they weren't enforcing them (more of a "this is a warning, don't do this again.." type deal). I'm up in Bothell/North Seattle.

Guess I'll keep using my Specialized Banshee helmet from 1997 until I get paid and buy something nicer...

That sucks though...I've probably spend well over a thousand on parking tickets in the past 10 years...I'm not giving the city anymore money.

Helmets are a good idea, but helmet laws are complete BS.

Those are gorgeous shoes.

Too bad they are by Bontrager - I'll bet they fall apart.

I'd buy them in black.

Matched perfectly with this denim atrocity.



Might just be me, but those shoes are beyond fugly. The color, the style, the fact that they are Bontrager and we all know friends don't let friends ride Bontrager.

I dunno, I have some basic Bontrager road shoes that have been through the wringer and they're holding up fine and are super comfortable.

Yesterday I realized that cotton bar tape aint my bag. Too small a diameter, no give, rougher texture than one would think.

Grown-ass men wear those to work here in my business. Someone needs to give them a clue.

Can't decide if it wants to be a wingtip or a cowboy boot or a bike shoe.
