on 19 february 1980, my fixie, 33 at the time, passed out after a night of heavy skidding in a london park. It was left to sleep locked to railings, at 67 overhill road in east dulwich, south london. The following afternoon, we found the fixie wheel-less with no seat, stem or handlebars and alerted the authorities. The fixie was rushed to brick lane bikes in east london, where it was pronounced dead on arrival. Kicked-in down-tube and erosion by vomit was the cause of the fixie's death, and the official cause was listed as "exposure" and "death by misadventure". The fixie frame was hung on a wall by his family in fremantle, western australia.
woo!
