I was thinking about getting a new bike, one with gears, but after a nice ride home from work yesterday, I think I like the fixed gear too much. Besides, even if I sell my Bianchi I'll still have to save more money. So this afternoon I spent some time looking at fixed gear sites & ogling other people's bikes. Here are some of those links:
Old Skool Track - an all-around site with lots of info & links.
63xc - the off-road fixed gear site.
Sheldon Brown's site has lots of info on bikes, not just fixies. I read his Why fixed gear? article before I got my Bianchi.
Bicycle Habitat in NYC looks like a great bike shop. And they're apparently one of the only shops in the country that build Keirin bikes, which are Japanese track bikes built to insane standards. You may have seen Takeshi Kitano's Kikujiro that had a scene at a Keirin track.
Look how dope this late 70s Raleigh track bike is!
