Loads of positive images of women riding their bikes, having a good time, who could possibly mind some of the things about 'fixed riding' that we've heard before? Much of this forum started out this way, too, people riding OTPs, doing tricks etc., and thinking what they'd just discovered about cycling was to do specifically with riding fixed. You have to allow people to get into stuff even if they're perhaps not terribly original or world fixie-famous cool in getting into it (which is a good thing, as it's about what we share). It's about enjoyment at the end of the day, it doesn't have to be sophisticated.
