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)

Thanks! It's about 9.5-10 miles each way, depending on the path.

My beautiful Serotta in the background of a news photo of a Trump supporter yelling at protesters. I rode there so it counts.

Silver Comet Trail, Rockmart Georgia to the Alabama State Line.










The trail passes through Cedartown, Ga. I went exploring a little and found this cool art deco theater. Not much else in Cedartown.




Not much in the rest of western Georgia, either...




Standing in Georgia looking west at Alabama. The Silver Comet Trail becomes the Chief Ladiga Trail.

If by "Laid back" you mean crystal meth and supporting political demagogues then yes, parts of western Georgia can be very laid back.

I want to acknowledge how great this picture is. Couldn't have been better if it was staged.

So awesome that you bike is in this shot.
