Do you think the MASH crew even made eye contact with this guy when they rolled by?
The more I study this guy and his rig, the more I'm thinking he might be the most subtle mocking of the fix gear fad ever.
He's got the Pista, the white rims and the white Vittorias but after that the high flyin' aeroplane of fashion crashes right into a mountain. Let us count the ways.
1) Crank Bros mallet pedals. Really?
2) While he gets a pass on a brake, note the positive rise stem.
3) Seatpost mounted water bottle. He must not have gotten the memo. The only hydration options are cans of PBR or whatever you can fit into a flask.
4) White New Balance running shoes in lieu of Pumas, Adidas, Nike Dunks, or Asics Tigers.
5) Cargo shorts instead of girls jeans or proper knickers.
6) T-shirt tucked into cargo shorts.
7) A backpack that's not even up to JanSport standards.
8) Finally, the piece de resistance, sunglasses with the optional croakies upgrade.

Awesome. Just awesome. If you happen to find a detail I missed, feel free to let me know.
