I rode fixed as a training method and over the winter, and just stuck with it, from about 1987 I guess. Still have 3 fixies, inc my old TT bike, but I rarely ride them now as I live near Crystal Palace and at my age (55, ffs) I can’t get up over the hill and back down again to work and back on a fixed. It’s a bit shit but I need gears :(
