In the beginning this web site was an electronic 'zine covering single speed and fixed gear bikes. The first issues had an intentional raw, minimalist look that hopefully reminded people of the homemade cut and paste paper jobs in it's simplicity and lack of polish. Since then things have evolved (or devolved depending on your point of view) and the site has a cleaner look but it still covers bikes, beer and music and adheres to the KISS principles originally established with that primitive Issue #1. Check out the past issues. It's free after all.
