Still kicking.
Older than dirt/NJ(what's it to ya)/42x15/18 miles isn't anything to brag about for me.

it looks like 46/16 is a very popular fixed gear ratio for most ppl riding in NYC.

My commute is 10 miles and I do it in under an hour. Probably about 50 minutes. And I'm not particularly fast. 46/16 with 650c wheels, fixed.
ETA: I slow down for stop signs and stop at red lights. 50 minutes is includes that, and there are a LOT of stop signs and lights on my route.

Your cog is slipping.
Your post was probably the most relevant one in this thread.

There's not a whole lot of relevance in this "hello for my people please answer" thread. I keep opening this thread so it stops showing us an unread and there is nothing remotely interesting in it.

I gotta post pics of my rig soon but I'm a puss when hauling mower, always geared, thinking I need to get bigger cogs or smaller chainrings in fact.

If you want to be understood correctly, perhaps you should consider the use of punctuation and capital letters.
