That was me. I was at the Sheldon ride, but not on fixed. I was on a gold Longstaff trike. I make it as far as the pub 'cause my son (who was on fixed) was getting really cold, so we peeled off and went to Montezuma's for hot chocolate.
Expnsive bike? The only expensive bit of my pompino is the rear phil hub. I stripped the threads off of both sides of the original hub (I think it was trying to tell me I'm too fat), so built a wheel that would be as indestructible as possible (or at least tolerate my carcass)
