From the article: "When Portland bike messenger Ayla Holland wants to stop, she depends largely on her powerful leg muscles as she exerts backward pressure on the pedals of her fixed-gear bicycle. "I actually feel a lot more confident riding a fixed-gear because your control over the bike is so much stronger," said Holland, 24." Ain't NO way in hell she can stop quicker without brakes than she can with 'em, no matter how many times she tells herself so. Repeating a lie, or a myth, doesn't make it true. Fred |
