My 1st 2 days of fixed were essentially me going "shit! Shit! SHIT!" but perhaps launching myself into rush hour traffic in the south London alps wasn't the best idea but then my brain sorta flipped (flopped) and I realised the key is to KEEP PEDALLING. Keep pedalling? On a bike? Surely that's bike riding 101. Easy.
When I played polo a while ago using a freewheel really freaked me out!
