Going fixie

Okay, this post is mainly about making Nicolas jealous, since I know he has been looking after buying a fixed-gear bike for a while...

In other words, I just got myself a "fixie" bike. I already ear some people saying that I am just being a fashion victim... Well, I hope I won't become like that. I am not a purist neither, and I added a front brake, which is not very pure for a fixie, to be minimalist...

Some people (probably the same ones as previously! ;o)) will say that having a front brake is being a big girl, a wimp, or anything like that... But, well, it already saved my life a couple of times in 4 days... ;o)

Anyway, I don't really care. It is fun to ride, and it makes a nice city bike for Barcelona, a not too hilly city.

Shall I send you a flannel shirt to wear with it? I imagine Francis can hook you up with some tight jeans. With just a few snips with the scissors you could have a nice mullet to go along with your bike too.
