Why I will do the oposite of Mr Tibbs
Quote | Reply
I ride Tubualrs, because in about 60 races on tubulars I have had only one flat, and that was my fault for running a 3 year old tire that was dry rotted. In the 15 or so races that I have run clinchers on I have also had 1 flat, so the percentage for me goes to the Tubulars. I'll stick with them.



I ride a fixed gear, because it's fun!



I use campy because it was the only spare brake I had to put on my fixed-gear.



I shave my legs when I race because I swim faster. Even if it doesn't have an actual physical effect, and in my opinion it does, I think for me it at least has a psychological effect.



I drink coffee because, oh wait, I don't drink coffee, it tastes like CRAP!

I ride tubulars AND clinchers. And I even race on a combination sometimes. Why? Same reason I did my last race on a singlespeed P2K...because I fell on my head as a child. Last time I got a flat in a race I rode on the rim...screw spares.

I ride a fixed because my nuts can't possibly got ANY number.

I have a Shimagnolo drivetrain. Just to piss off the purists.

I shave my legs because girls like it. And I'm all about pleasing the ladies.

I also don't drink coffee. That's some nasty sh!#.

While the title of your post shows wisdom beyond measure I need to clear up a couple of things.

1. I said nothing about leg shaving. I shave mine.

2. When Isay single speed I am talking of the off road type. I call road single speed fixed gear. I have nothing against that.
