Riding fixed is shit. It's something people do during their 20-something-rehearsal-mid-life-crisis phase. It's also a regressional behaviour; an attempt to recapture the secure feelings of childhood when you rode a fixed trike and felt special because you were the centre of your parents' universe... so there's also a degree of egocentrism about it.
Every fixed rider I've ever met has been a complete waste of cellular tissue, and an embarrassment to the rest of the anthropological genetic drift squad to which they once belonged.
