Welcome

Hi lovely peeps,

I live outside the smoke down in sunny rural sussex where single-speed and fixed are few and far between. I also hang out on cyclechat.

I've a couple of single-speeds, a Kona Kilauea based SS mtb, and a Strida folding bike (well it only has one gear, fnarr, fnarr), and two fixed off-the-shelf bikes; an Edinburgh Bicycle Co-Op Track '10 (soon to be sold) and a Charge Plug (which whilst fixed for the commute may well soon get a Sturmey-Archer S2C hub geared rear wheel for weekends). Oh and I have few geared bikes as well.

The commute is 13 miles cross country and how it gets done depends on too many variables to list. This time of year it is often train+strida, and a few days a month on fixed, other times I ride something else. Car? Well I own one but I hardly ever drive it!

Having decided to stop lurking I'm looking forward to learning lots.

Greg
Hey greg

Awesome welcome sir!

Sounds like Surrey is sunnier than the smoke... Ive forgotten what sun looks like - can you draw me a picture?

Sounds like a nice collection of bikes you have there. Oh, and dont be ashamed to tell us about your geared bikes as well - anyone on 2 wheels is a friend!

Welcome to the fray!
