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)

Needed a larger grocery bag. I have the Timbuk2 Especial Cuatro. I'm going to unload that since I ordered the Chrome Barrage Pro.

I love me my GR's!

I had a GR I like yours which I gave to the lady to EDC.

Now I have the II which is essentially the GR I with pointless wifi capabilities/ smartphone remote and a half a hair faster lens. I only have the II because it was cheaper on warehousedeals than the GR I!
I suppose it was somebody who returned it after learning the hard way that GR's dont have zoom!

My only jeer is its slow shutter speed for the occasional moving shot.

Be sure to mess around with the effects (photo filters). They're not gimicky except for that one stupid one where it blurs out the top and bottom of a shot except for a sliver of the middle.

This one was pretty cheap on Fred Miranda, so I scooped it up. It's my first camera I've owned so it's gonna get a learning process for sure. The group chat I'm in has a couple people into photography so I'm going to be constantly hounding them with questions, but I'm definitely excited for this.

Also it's small enough to fit in a jersey pocket inside a sandwich bag so that's neat.

Rad. I've been thinking about a bike camera option for a while. I'll have to check these out.

I've got a waist pack that fits a DSLR with a lens attached, but it's not so fun to ride with – especially fixed. Thinking about a handlebar bag from Swift or a smaller camera. Too bad I sold my Fuji x100s a while back.

all my on-bike pics are taken on my iphone. Grab it out of pocket - swipe to camera - snap - back into pocket.

A pair of Black Sugino RD2's for practically nothing. Now I just have to convince myself I actually want black cranks. Oops.

Ordered some FSA Omegas through my LBS and they showed up today. I also bought some cinelli cork tape to wrap them. Eventually I'm going back to arundel rubber gecko tape. Now I need to buy a smaller torque wrench so I can properly torque everything.
