I'm talking about cigarettes.

And of course you "can" ride a bike if you smoke. I just find it a little retarded.

FYI: Smoking and Biking do not mix. Let me grab my rally cap and cigs then head to the coffee shop for my pseudo-intellectual conversational garbage.

Hipster's are too afraid of the outdoors to go mountain biking and smoke too many cigarettes to push a real gear for any amount of time on a road bike. Hipsters are the only type of riders I dislike.

Fixed gears are for messengers. I ride mine for work. Mountain Bikes = Fun.... Fixed=work..

considering the fact that most messengers double as drug dealers - smoking fits....

There are two completely opposite motives for fixed or MTB....
if you were stuck in a cement jungle i dont think you would choose MTB

I have/am stuck in an urban jungle. You think I grew up in the Rockies or something?
Interesting info about the drug dealers, and I'm sure a lot of them are. Not like they have real jobs. But the majority are certainly not. I was just expressing my views on hipsters. When looking 'cool' becomes the primary motive of a rider it just bothers me. This is one reason why I quit riding with roadies, its only about the components and bragging rights to them. I view most hipsters similarly.
