Theres loads of fixed riders in Edinburgh, most of them couriers or ex couriers and thier mates. I don't live there anymore but used to and worked as a courier, mainly on a fixed wheel. The hills aren't too bad you get used to them, since leaving I went brakeless which I find ok in London but back there its a bit of a nightmare going down some of the hills.
During the summer loads of the riders meet up on the Links on Friday evenings for a beer
Yeah man! there are, mainly just couriers! and that's why I want to do something positive, create a crew of riders who are up for street riding, and helping create fixed gear competitions or even bike polo events etc. etc. something a bit more focused!
At the moment I'm creating stickers and merchandise, I'm getting articles published in local scene magazines and stuff to... I just wanna try get as many people involved as possible.

Maybe you could let them all know about it.
