Fixies? Unicycles?? What the heck are they doing in Oregon?

Still trying to figure out if a 29er with drop bars would be legal,

_ I think there is a UCI limit of 35mm on tire width.
Suspension is legal if useless weight.

29er??

That is what they call bike with fat tires over 700 rims. The total height
with the fat tires should be around 29". I can't remember who started the
recent trend but that is all I know.

I don't know if he *started* the recent trend, but Gary Fisher is the
guy pushing it the hardest.

Thanks. Another trend I'm guessing I'll miss altogether.

We have lots of fixed gear bikes, but have not seen a unicycle in WA.

I'll bet you a dollar to a doughnut that you DON'T have fixed gear
bikes in your 'cross races. Single-speed, yes... fixed gear, no.
