I got called a "show off" as I skid-stopped at some lights, by a guy doing the best wannabe fixed-gear impression possible without actually sorting out his fucking drivetrain: Old blue raleigh, polished drops with bmx lever and no back brake. rusty 10spd drivetrain still in full effect. No-skid inferiority complex perhaps?
By the way this was in cambridge, give us a shout if you're a lurker on here waiting to take the plunge properly ;)
