Rochester Flyers is NOT Rochester Minnesota's bicycle messenger service. Rochester Flyers is NOT a cycling club or race team. Rochester Flyers is NOT a bike shop or a company. Rochester Flyers is just me, going on rides, attempting to return to racing, doing alleycats and spewing my opinion online.

Gunnar Soroos A lifelong cyclist born on the tropical island of Oahu, racing in Minnesota. His passion of cycling is combined with his faith in God to keep him focused on the real mission - the golden rule, love others as you would want to be loved. Peace.

One's first glimpse of freedom, in fact is often snatched from
a bike. By turning the pedals you can move more quickly towards
your most secret dreams.
-Bernard Hinault

For those who like to race for only an hour on skinny knobbys, and only one gear, this looks like the event for you. It's billed as the "Official UnOfficial World Championship event for single speed cyclocross racers."

I don't really know what all of that means, but it reminds me about maybe going ahead with a Road Fixedgear World Championship event. What do you think? Spring/Summer of '08? Do a time trial on Friday afternoon, gravel road race Saturday morning and a paved road race in the evening. Seperate titles and jerseys for each event. And have an alleycat on Friday night for fun. I think I'm gonna start contacting some sponsors. We could have any proceeds go to a local charity. Seriously, let me know what you think.
