u know T M, i can see that, but i can see the other side too. If i didn't ride the bmx i think i'd be a bit of a fiend on a fixed gear, i would be a bit silly and want to have my bike skills dialled and road awareness to a point i could ride safe for myself and others at speed. in saying this i would have to be realistic about the consequences...... i think in london it's outrageous, as in, so many variables and fucking tools; bike riders, car, taxi, truck, bus drivers that it's even more dangerous.
back home i will be brakeless cause hell, it's chilled and roads are a dream, while in london a brake will be on.
