When I began to see several of the neighbors out riding around our streets in the early morning hours or early evening, I decided that a new fad must be happening. Since I also enjoyed bike riding when I was young, I was interested in the shape and style of their bikes. Apparently the new trend that is becoming so popular has to do with the re-appeance of single speed bikes such as I used to enjoy. These new fixies are easy to ride because you don’t have to worry about a lot of mechanical issues such as shifting gears all the time. It makes perfect sense to me, and it also sounds like a great way to get off some extra pounds and build some strength in my legs. Maybe it’s my turn to ride around the block.
