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)

Dude:

a) googling the words London Alleycat will work well
b) capitals only on the first word in the sentence
c) If you're going to be in Southampton any time soon, we can always create a 2 man alleycat

Man I dont know how people can film like that and have it come out halfway decent. If I ran a helmet cam it would be all blurry from looking around all the time.
