    I've lived in manhattan for eight years now, grew up five miles from the city line for my whole life and only in the last few years do I see these goddamn "fixie" bikes and you're justification is "well I live in NYC and it's flat...".

    It's bullshit. You guys all want to look trendy and grungy and all "new york" and shit, so you try and look like bike messengers. Bike messengers used geared fucking bikes because it makes their job fucking easier. Once again turn a working, functional thing into some sorta stupid "lifestyle choice" and then defend it because it gives you some sort of integrity and authenticity. It's all fucking decadence. Decadence I say.

    And most of the same people who ride these fixies wear tight ass fucking jeans. Who the fuck wears tight jeans to ride a bicycle. I hope your janitor keychain with the gadzillion keys falls off your belt and jams into your bicycle spokes thus forcing your pork pie hat to fly off your head and when you run into traffic to get it a bike messenger on a geared bike runs you over.
