Soo.... Adam, Stump, and I have made the executive decision that we will be taking fixed gear bikes across the country :). For those of you who do not know: "The oldest and simplest type of bicycle is the "fixed-gear" bicycle. This is a single-speed bike without a freewheel; that is, whenever the bike is in motion, the pedals will go around. You cannot coast on a fixed-gear machine." Since we have PhillyK to drive the car and carry all the luggage we need to make our trip hard in some way, so we figured that taking fixies up the Rockie Mountains will be a suitable challenge! Here is a site that I found explaining fixed gear bikes: http://www.sheldonbrown.com/fixed.html
