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)

More the former than the latter, though the latter is expressly true.

I changed my mind. All I need is Goodbye Horses by Garvey and Q. Lazzarus. I can't believe I like that song as much as I do.

Bob Dylan's album Nashville Skyline

10 tracks of funky good-time country fun

Edit: I don't listen to music while riding anymore after a few close calls with less than attentive drivers.

I think I'd listen to Daft Punk: Alive 2007

That whole album just makes me want to ride my bike fast.
