I regard bike geeks in this town with great suspicion and disdain. They are lemurs with bad attitudes. But at the same time I love bikes.

I’ve reluctantly found myself bashfully intrigued by this idiotic fixed gear fad that is going on. And in the name of tinkering, I may convert a bike to a fixed gear. Dear god I never thought it would come to this.

To aid me in this quest I found this handy blog post on converting old road bikes to fixies.
