The Fixed Gear Bike Crowd Now Turns to Mountain Biking
http://sfcitizen.com/ blog/ 2008/ 04/ 18/ the-fixed-gea...What’s the funniest line in this article from San Francisco Chronicle Staff Writer Dan Giesin - Single-minded cyclists have old-school cool “We’re shedding new light on an old tradition,” “You feel like a purist,” “You don’t need all those fancy gears.” Too many gears can actually spoil the ride. “…we single-speeders…” “They are such a cool group,” “It’s kind of a counter-culture,” “There is that underground element: a little bit different, a little bit dangerous.” This is called starting your own league, so it’s the same old thing. These people aren’t really dangerous either.
