I voted SS. This is based solely on your grammar and spelling.Fixed wheel is going to be too much bicycle for you.
Apart from that, all the doom-mongers are creeping me out. Fixed wheel is like a normal bike, except you have to keep on pedalling. These tales of death-defying corners and fearful encounters with tarmac are rarities and reflect on the riders' poor bike skills. There is no innate and inescapable tendency to crash when riding fixed.
