This is London fixed gear and single speed right?
There's a store right in town you can take your sweet fixie to, where people will be baffled at how you ride a bike with only one gear - you must be so fit. However, you'll casually brush it off with a clichéd and pseudo zen-like quote from something you read on 'Shit fixie skidders say'. Once the people have momentarily parked their disbelief, you'll try on some nice but pricey clobber, realise that you need to size up compared to that thing you last bought 5 years ago, but reluctantly pay for it anyway (still kinda pricey even in the sale). Partially satisfied with feeding the consumerist agenda, you squeeze into that fresh drip after a quick oat flat white then skid off into the sunset flipping a finger to a conveniently placed EVRI delivery van. -end scene-
