I am an old fart. I occasionally ride a single speed bike for variety, novelty and strength on climbs. One of one of my ride groups’ primary ride leaders rides a fixie for some of our training rides in winter. I ride next to him on downhills and my soul weeps. I ride next to him on steep inclines and my knees weep. Late in these rides, I thank the gods of cycling, as well as countless engineers, for front and rear derailleurs and my many 22 speed steeds.

Quite alright. Some of the other thread topics here are getting too old and too long. This at least gives some bit of change for us<grin>
