It was recently, starting in September of 2010, my third year of school in Manhattan. I was sick of paying the MTA to get around, so I sourced out a bike over the summer and converted it to a single speed, it was a 1972 Ross. bought new parts, had it painted at the body shop I was working at, and brought it to Manhattan. more fun than driving in the city and i get places faster than the subway, cheaper and more direct with no waiting. Just recently picked up a Motobecane Track 2010, for the price its held up pretty well and ive got 125 miles on it. No complaints here, though, its starting to get cold... we'll see how this winter plays out.
