so i have bene rideing a freinds spare free wheel while i wait to build another rear for my fixi. i noticed right off that the gear ratio is like welcome to spin city, and that i had verry litte controll over my rear wheel. also stoppint the thing with just the front break was difficult. it was harder to feel for traction in the rin, and i almsot killed some club gores in soho.

it was kinda nice to be able to just relax going down steep hills, but i need to get back to fixed asap riding the singel speed is just a bit too boreing.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
