I did my lunch ride today on the fixed gear (42/18t), channeling my inner Mikey. I've been neglecting this thing big time since I start riding with the powertap a year ago. It's a nice, different feel - I dig it.

I like how the fixed gear (relative to SS) really makes you feel the features of the road more. Minute changes in direction (orientation WRT wind), gradient, road surface and momentum are really amplified.
