Here's a cool retro fixie I saw in Philadelphia this past weekend:
One thing that fixies are definitely good for is trackstanding. A block before I found this bike all by its lonesome, I saw the dude riding it hold a trackstand at a traffic light for probably a full minute. Very impressive!
That is a really cool bike. I love the paint job.
If only DH hadn't placed a limit on the maximum number of bikes I'm allowed to own at any one time.....
Did you touch it?? ;)
No, the guy was covered with tattoos and I wasn't sure how long I had before he came back :o :eek:Quote:

Maybe that's why I can't get a date:pQuote:

How could someone who rides a bike like that be a bad person?:)
I was examining that frame a bit more and i noticed some details. I love that frame!
Oh, why must you tempt me to come up with smarta$$ remarks???Quote:

Those remarks are why I love ya, Regina ;)Quote:

I ended up not taking my bike with me this past weekend, after all, and I really regretted it. Between sightseeing by bike and cruising the Schuylkill Trail, there seem to be really great cycling opportunities.Quote:
