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)

Decided to do my first metric century tomorrow. Have done 60 miles before, but cut the ride short. This will hopefully be a full on, and probably more. If it gets close enough, will go for full blown century. #tarck #fixie

Apparently, i was "issued an infraction for aggressively bypassing the language censor". Aggressively. Haha whatever. It's like Badminton referees reffing a Hockey match around here. I wasn't even being mean to anyone, I just AGGRESSIVELY bypassed the language censor.

It's cool though. I didn't really miss too much. I mean, of course there was a "help me build the most awesomest, *****inest, fixie ever" thread started..

I did miss you guys though.

And Sherblock, if yer reading this, thanks for the saddle. I love it, and it looks great on the Basso.

Unsure to be honest. Destination is a pie place that supposedly has really good pie. I am not sure how I will feel about eating pie on a ride like that. Prefer pizza to be honest. Not sure of how many people are going or what the pace will be.

Today I separated a fingernail from its nailbed while installing a tire.
@TenSpeedV2 You'll finish that century and ask why you waited so long. It'll be easier than you think.

Changing jobs -- Office is closing so they fired everyone. Job market is ridiculous right now, having a hell of a time finding something else
