Hello,
I think the form is to introduce yourself first so here goes:
I live out west of london near the chilterns so have a fair few hills round here so mostly ride my singlespeed mtb and geared road bike - but got given (well for £20) my first fixed wheel bike last november.
Will post some pics when i get round to taking some.
its a really old (70s/80s) - far too big for me - odd sized wheels - Raleigh Carlton in purple
Genius - use it now for commuting 30mile round trip, pub rides - coming down off the chilterns from the pub in the dark has been interesting a few times.
Hopefully catch some of you on some of the london events as they are not far on the train or if anyone is out this way up in the hills would welcome some rides.
