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)

I love the straggler, it's a top contender for when I get a CX bike.

Did a rad ride around my home town.

I think it's just the camera angle. They look fine to me.

I was actually looking into that when i was editing the video because I realized how choppy it looks. However, it's not available yet. But, Instagram does have an app that allows you to do pretty much the same thing. But, you have to film with your phone for it to work. You can't convert a go pro video.

Here's a photo from my ride to Breezy Point near Riis Park/ Rockaway Beach in Queens.

SKS Raceblades. Perfect for tight clearances or bikes with no fender eyelets.

Did a ride around Yosemite Valley last week. I was thinking of heading over there again for a few days this week. It's still pretty warm for the mountains.

Make sure to take your bike with you. The full loop around the valley is around 12 miles and it's absolutely beautiful. You can do a half loop too by turning at the turnaround point. I grabbed a sandwich at the deli, did a half loop and rode up to Mirror Lake and had lunch with this view.

Nice, looks like you caught the lip and used it for a berm. Was that the front tire that let go?
