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)

This is hilarious. I get hit on all the time, on and off the bike, but it doesn't mean that the people doing the hitting aren't drooling idiots who think they have sex appeal. Haha! I can't even walk anywhere by myself without being bothered. It's just the summer, we ride our bikes more, people are restless, and we wear less clothing. Ta da! Hehe.

I was at a show the other night, standing next to my bike and some girl was like, "I bet you look really sexy riding that."

In Atlanta, mustache is slang for bicycle. So free mustache rides indeed.

actually i'd say my grammar is pretty spot-on, minus the often preferred lack of capitalization. it's just that grammar-nazi-ism is one more thing for people to use to make themselves look more intelligent. welcome to the internet, serious business, etc. even if you win, you're still an idiot.

I guess that makes you the internet version of Anne Frank, except that she had a cute haircut and actually knew how to read and write.

Oh, and do read my signature. I have a thing for arguing with robots!

Man, maybe I should stop riding at night. No girls have even said "whassap!" although the totally cute 17 year old girl at jones bike just couldn't take her eyes off my front wheel....when I had one. That's really as close to flirting as I've been subjected to.

I have a gf anyway, but still...it's nice to attract compliments.

no one is being hit on here, at all

its just that they simply think that you are gay and therefore a non-threat and they intend to use you to get to someone else they want
