My "buns" have not been "fixed". They just seem to keep on breedin' and spreadin' ....
I kind of yearn for a flip-flop, but actually *living* in Seattle, I understand in a bone-deep kind of way the deliciously precious value of a derailleur and multiple gears! (hills, baby, hills!)
But there's something oh-so-sexy about a single speed, whether a freewheel or a fixie. Sigh.

Congratulations. I saw one of those at the LBS recently, it's a cool bike.
I just started riding FG as well. Takes some getting used to, but I'm really enjoying it!

At first I wasn't completely sold on riding fixed, but now I'm head over heels! I had to switch back to my road bike due to a flat on Addie (on my way to to work @ 4:40 AM
), and I had some minor issues 
. I kept thinking, "No, I can't coast- must keep pedaling!", but of course, I could. I think that the only problems I have now are from switching between bikes so much. Good thing I prefer the FG for town-riding...

I want the coffee cup holder for my new city bike. Maybe with a croissant pod.
How about a marketing idea....It's a little secret you didn't know about us women. We're all closet Visigoths.
