Like several others, here’s a pic from our group ride to the memorial. Good to see so many colors out there

To my surprise, more than one person seems interested in singlespeed. We even have a few people riding singlespeed every day. Given the fabulosity of the prizes at stake, it occurs to me that we may need a tiebreaker rule.
By the power vested in me as sponsor of this PP, I hereby declare that in the event of a number-of-rides tie, the singlespeeder with the most miles shall prevail. And don’t forget–only one ride per day counts.
Happy singlespeeding!
I prolly won’t ride that many miles on the singlespeed/fixie. Why don’t we do a longest trackskid or longest trackstand contest to determine winner?

#scavhunt 40s by bikecentric, on FlickrThis thread has inspired me to pull the old, unloved bike polo bike out of the shed, pump up the tires, do a few part swaps and take her for a spin. It wasn’t bad. In fact, it was fun with the bike being so silent and just the constant spinning required of the fixie. I’ll be doing it a bit more.
