jees baptism of fire for ada"
I dont understand the depth of feeling towards other cyclists at times in these forums. Fair do's many offered aid and advice. Hartxander that was a cool gesture to make!
I ride fixed with only a front brake, been doing so all year actually - without retention!!!
Just bought some toe clips and new pedals to fix this weekend, but I rode without the retention because I wanted to get used to riding fixed before i clipped myself in.
I say the above because I have probably been seen by some on here, who thought "Twat, Fuckwit, Hipster etc" and simply as a flash judgement! I just wanted to make sure I was safe and not a danger to others!
ada, i do agree about the brake though! I reckon Hartxander's offer is a good one. Humane, and fuckin generous!
