when i moved to Pennsylvania in '99, my friend loaned me his SS for a while. eventually a month or so i went to purchase a bike down the block from me. cheap and used. i bought one and didn't realize it was a Pista.(i knew nothing about bikes then.) turns out it was fixed so i rode it anyway, embarrassed to just say i didn't know what a fixed gear was. i lived right by the trexlertown velodrome so there were many a track bike.
