Where do you live and what’s it like riding in your city?
I live in Seattle WA, which is a pretty bike friendly place... plenty of commuters, and more and more new cyclists by the day which is very cool. The hills aren’t too terrible, even with my fixie

What was your favorite city to ride in, and why?
I’m from the midwest, so I’d have to say Minneapolis. It’s such a bike friendly place, and I love stopping for coffee and staring at bikes at One on One!

Why do you love riding in the city?
I get to ride by everyone stuck in their cars, and actually see the city for what it is, rather than just trying to get from point A to B. You really can’t get to know a city in a car. Plus it’s fun to see everyones bikes... fixies, choppers, tall bikes...

Or just say whatever you want about riding in the city…
Please for the love of your bike... check the fucking chain tension! I love my fixie... and if you love yours, you wouldn’t let the chain tension get too slack!
