I more or less stopped riding fixed when hardcourt bike polo branched off and went to single speed.
Did a few months at Stratford on the track after I stopped going to polo regularly, which is probably about six years ago, got accredited, but was just a bit bored with it after a while. I think that's the last time I've ridden fixed.
Happier now to freewheel coast around admittedly. I have been on rides (on my Bullitt) with the FPC (fixed pirates crew) who are a newer riding crew, mostly in their twenties, don't think they have much presence on this forum. They're into the freestyle thing, tricks, skids, wheelies, and so on. I'm glad to see they have energy for it but I wasn't tempted by it at all.
