I wanted to get fit and get riding, regardless of the kind of bike. I realised one day that my combination of no exercise, rich food and beer was having a profound effect on my normally streak-of-piss thin figure. Totally chanced upon fixed gear bikes, but I'm glad I did, because in leu of owning a car, they give me something to get really obsessive and geeky over. I used to wax my 205 twice a week, just to give you an idea of how materialistic I can be.
