fixie project

I'm afraid that the fixie below is not mine. It is a Nishiki, though. My fixie project is currently on a back burner. Between my trip to DC and NYC and my new job, I've not had time to paint the frame. But I have been riding. I've been riding every day to work in Freeland. It's just a little under 5 miles, with a *big* hill in between. That could be considered part of the fixie project. I'm getting my legs and lungs ready for fixed riding. It has been good getting back on the bike. At 59, I've been taking it slowly the last couple of months, but it's amazing how fast the legs are coming back. Having a *big* hill helps. It's fun being comfortable on the bike again. The fixie below is from fixed gear gallery. I visit it every day. If you like looking at bikes, you might visit it, too.
