Seeing someone on a bike in regular clothes always makes me think of Europe and/or a simpler time...and it is very chic.

80% of my riding is in "regular" clothes. Mostly B-17 or Arione saddles. All of my bikes have gears. None have race team paint jobs though. :banana:

One year at STP I was riding with a group of about 10, many with micro bladders, we were stopping about every 30 minutes for someone to pee. Anyway, every time we stopped this guy rode past us wearing a buttoned long sleeve shirt, Cotton Dockers and Topsiders. He went 200 miles that day wearing street clothes!

Fixed, if your favorite fixed-gear bicycle is broken, just ride one of your geared bicycles while wearing the garments you prefer.
No muss, no fuss.

*** Fixed...They have gears and shifters on these things, for quite a while now.

i think his beloved grandmother passed away last year.

fixed, it's hard. maybe you'll be riding no gears for a while.

fond thoughts of all who are not here with us.
