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)

Haha . Actually there is one that is right next to a living space in Tallahassee. It is called Railroad Square.

I miss them because as a child I used to practically live inside of one... which was the South Side train yard.

I want those days back heh.

Thanks i just got a Nikon D50 recently and have been playin a good bit with it. Still playin with the stock lens, but have a nice 50mm 1.8 that I haven't even started playing with yet. I was shooting film for the longest time, but got sick of developing and scanning. Plus I spent more money last year on film alone than the new camera, so I decided to just get a new toy.

One more, from the roof of my apartment.
