I’ve been wanting to put together a fixed gear bicycle for quite a while now. Last night I got this guy up and running. And man…it is FUN. It’s about as simple as you can get on a bike, with no shifting, no coasting, and one brake lever. I had no clue how it was going to ride or that I’d enjoy it so much. I still love my road bike, but this old Fuji that I picked up for $1.99 at Goodwill (seriously) is my new toy!

I’m looking forward to painting it up and giving it some character. More photos to come!
