    Guys, help me: which Tom Clancy novel starts with Jack Ryan saving the life of one of the Princes of England? Like, some IRA douches are trying to kill half the royal family.

    Because on a fixed gear you have a connection to the road that is like, totally zen.

    As much as I would like to disagree, my heart wouldn't really be in it.

    A large part of my annoyance stems from the fact that I get lumped in with them. A "you're ruining it for the rest of us" kind of thing.

    Japan: this is how I feel about guns... all the time.

    I literally had a guy on an expensive bike stop me on my $100 Caldor (think Wal-Mart but local chain) bike just to laugh at how shitty of a bike it is.

    Yes asshole, I know it's a shitty bike, but this is flat roads and I'm enjoying riding around the lake in a circle. Fuck you.

    Fixed gear bikes are good for one thing. The X-Games. No other purpose at all.

    Well, there is their original intended purpose which is track racing.

    Pretty much any Tom Clancy up to Sum of All Fears is a decent bathroom read

    I think after that is when he started going really crazy

    Still! That's track racing.

    Just like the X-Games are in a course / half pipe.

    It's a controlled environment.

    NO WHERE ELSE DO FIXED GEAR BIKES HAVE A PLACE

    I have a burning hatred for hipster dickheads on fixed gears on the roads.

    Not that all fixed riders are necessarily dickheads, but dickheads invariably seem to ride fixed gears.

    Why do hipsters like fixed gear bikes?

    I have run into more douchebag cyclicsts than anime fans, gun owners or skateboarders. I'm telling you. The percentage of douchebag : normal is so disproportionate in favor of douchebags that it just makes me want to destroy all bikes everywhere.

    A fixed gear...motorcycle?

    How would that even?

    And I always thought Hipsters rode Cafe Racers and UJM's from the 80's/

    Tom Clancy is like John Grisham or Dan Brown.

    Once you've read one of them you've read them all.

    You could totally fix gear a motorcyle. I mean your top speed would be like, 25 or something, but it'd be done.

    And yes, they do. Cafe Racers out the assssssss.

    I bet Will has one.

    At least that shit makes sense. Looks cool. Fixed gear bike doesn't look cool. Just makes you look like an idiot.
