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?

I love hops, too. But I usually only like having 4oz tasters of the killed by hops beers.

For actual drinking, something in the 55-65 IBU range is ideal.

There are a lot of amazing craft beers out there and I hate it that every bar I go to only carries IPAs as their craft selection. I'll just get a Guinness instead.

Well I wasn't going to just come and say it, but...

I feel like we've discussed this before, but do you enjoy any IPAs, sours, porters/stouts, dark ales or anything that generally isn't available in the cheap beer aisle? You can buy pilsners and lagers that are considered "craft" too.

Mounted my tires, discs and cassette and put the dang wheels on the Co-Motion and added the rear derailleur, also popped on an old stem and some spacers just to make it easier to roll it round. I will take some pics during the day so I can show the progress.

Ballast Point Pale Ale is a damn fine, non-hoppy beer from down San Diego way.

I always laugh at session able IPAs and craft lagers, if I'm gonna pay 9-10 bucks for a 6 pack, Id like to at least get a buzz off it.

Today I raced my new tubulars in the mud and I am sold. I was just pegging corners and still had plenty of grip and best yet, my glue job held up.

When you finish a long hard ride you reward yourself with a beer. You cannot have a long hard ride without a bike therefore I am building a bike so I can do just that. Boom all ya'll just got lit up, cuz!

My last beer was a Sam Adams regular old whatever it was. More than 2 and a half years ago. Decided to quit drinking, and so I did. I haven't had a drop since that day and honestly, I don't miss it. Never was a huge beer fan, stuck more to Crown & 7, Tanqueray & tonic, etc.

I like beer of all kinds. I don't discriminate. I can enjoy a high life, pbr, busch just as much as I can enjoy an ipa, stout, porter, etc.

My entire weekend was pretty much nothing but riding bikes and drinking beer. It was good.

(Yesterday) rode a local cyclocross course. It was the most fun I've had on my bike all year.



38x17 is a perfect SSCX gear.
