Fixie cool


I would totally love to hate people who ride fixie bikes and think that being a dickhead is cool. But alas, they are just so pretty. The bikes, that is. The people usually have try-hard haircuts. Anyway this is one of the prettiest bikes I've come across so far.

Sadly, cycling is one of those things that is so much more fun when you aren't doing it than when you are. You only ever remember the downhills, not the throbbing in your thighs as you tackle and inevitably fail to ride up the ups. And that bit is so embarrassing. Nobody wants to be seen pushing a bike up a hill, it looks just as bad as running down a hill after a skate-board would. Just plain stupid. Nevertheless, I'd be really happy if I owned this bike. Ain't it a beaut?
