I just got my fixie out of the shop and was able to ride it again. I forgot how much I loved this bike. When I went to pick it up the bike shop guy was like "um did you know one of your tires is off of a wheel chair?"
... I did not... but I guess it was strange that it was gray. I used to get my bike fixed by a guy in the park who worked out of his van BEST prices in the city. ... but yeah, IDK where he got his parts... LMAO
I almost wish I could be a messenger again. It was a life.
I rode my fixie on RAGBRAI (it still has the sticker) and all though grad school so I could have takeout to eat while studying.
I've been off it for years, but it all came back. I do ride much more slowly now. But that's for the best for me, and all of NYC if we are being honest.
