Random Urban, good places to have fun on your fixed wheel bike:
Next to where I live (in moseley)
There is a long downhill stretch called anderton park road. Its nearly a KM I think & dead straight. It used to have a rough gravelly surface but just today it has been surfaced with the smoothest black tarmac I have ever seen. I just spotted it and was wowed, pulled out the skateboard and have been practicing powerslides tonight.
I am guessing they might stick gravel back on it soon, if you want to come race up & down it in silent smoothness - do it now. You can do Frisco style skids all the way down (ok not that steep)
