Welcome

Hi everyone, I am new to the forum but have been browsing it for a while now. I was finally prompted to join when I saw a vintage Raleigh for sale. I'm not actually a huge fan of fixed gears - few too many steep hills on my commute - but I've always found the info in these forums useful.

I'm looking forward to being able to participate now I'm signed up!

we like hills...where do you commute?

Well, some of us do... I hate them

Ha, just signed up..

Cheers from Utrecht, Holland

Hello, been registered for a while. Never posted.

So hi...

Hi everyone! Greetings from Finland.

Hello everyone,

I'm something of a singlespeed/fixie newbie coming back into cycling after a few years break. Really impressed with the site and the friendly people on here. Hopefully I'll soon have my own bike built...when I figure out my frame size (doh!) and crack on with it!

In the mean time - hello everybody! :)

Greatings MrNick!

Welcome to the best forum in the internetz!

Hello hello!

Been lurking on here for a good few months and have finally bought a frame so can start work on my first fixed build. Looking forward to the challenge and a new riding experience once it's finished.

Morning All,

Joined here about a year ago, have just moved south (to Chelmsford) and I'm going to be building my first fixed gear soon (sounds like a FisherPrice toy?!).

Anyway, I've just picked up a cheap Peugeot frame on eBay (after my last got wrecked by a car), so hopefully I should have something to show for my efforts soon!

Anyone else near Chelmsford/Essex?

Ciao! Ben

Alright geezer.. Welcome to the forum init.

Hi everyone been finding all kinds of usefull stuff on here and lots of jokes, also the rides sound great!

Hello all!

I've just joined, mainly because I'm thinking of selling my Langster, to be honest. I'll still have a singlespeed left afterwards though (Inbred). I've not gone off singlespeeding, but since I plan to use the Oxford Tube bus a lot, I'll probably bite the bullet and get a Brompton so that I'll be guaranteed a place on the bus (bus will take full size bikes, but maximum of two, and is often full at commuting o'clock).

I'm sure you'll have no problem shifting your Langster. As long as it isn't the one that's the same colour as a turd.

Erm... I could always hammerite it?

No don't do that, dents will only decrease it's value.

Hullo all, I'm Daniel from Ireland, I have bicycles and often find it convenient to ride them. A black one, a white one and a silver one. Merry Christmas.

hehe...hello Schnell! Merry Xmass!

Hello folks, greetings from Croatia, cool site ;-)

My name is ben and i am new here, its my pleasure to join this community to find some information and good friends here.

I joined a while ago, been slying myself in, i joined because i was lurking so much, almost on a criminal level, and i love the banter and im pretty thick skinned.

Welcome all.

Hi, I somehow neglected to introduce myself earlier. Poor form, I know... I currently live in Belgium and am new to road bikes but not to single-speeds. I recently finished a vintage (roughly the same age as me) Motobécane single-speed conversion and toying with the idea of also installing a cog on the other side of my flipflop hub. Actually, I already ordered the cog and lock ring, so it's a question of when rather than if.
