I started riding fixed first in college (~2006). Repeated knee and foot injuries from running pushed me toward riding more, and I soon purchased a cheap road bike, joined the collegiate racing team and the rest is history. I'm currently an active category 2 road racer and also enjoy track, MTB and recently TT. TT is really cool, very pure and very nuanced. I'm enjoying it.

I don't ride fixed on the road so much these days, which is sad, but I love FG/SS bikes, training and racing and cycling in general. I own a Wabi Classic that is configured like a road bike but it just doesn't see much love between dedicated training sessions and all the time I'm trying to spend adapting to the TT bike for 2020.
