fixed gear bikes are the best!!

if you want to develop strong legs and a good base of off season training.

get a fixed for winter training...

I have been riding my lovely fixed around for the last six months, and I got on my tri-bike at the weekend and flew like the wind! the base training has really paid off...

I still feel that varable 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!
