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)

Biggest keirin race of the year on Dec. 30

If you're in Tokyo, Dec. 30 is the day of the biggest keirin race of the year - the GP final (aka the pro national championship). Keiokaku velodrome. Gates open at 10.20, main race is on at about 4pm.

Live TV coverage on NHK satellite from 4pm too.

Here's the mullet-haired line up: https://twitpic.com/vqfwu

I picked him too, because he has a fire on top of his head.
