Let's be a feature in Driven

Many of you have seen Driven Magazine in the shops around town and some of you probably met Terie when she covered the New Gears Alleycat. Terie phoned me the other day and wants to do a feature on fixed gear riding in Memphis. We've scheduled an interview/photo shoot for Thursday May 28th at 9pm at the Young Avenue Deli. That means get your bike fresh'd. If you won't be able to make the big group photo shoot but still want to participate I've got some questions from Terie that you can email to her:

My new frame

It might be a while before you see this out on the streets. I'm still thinking about what I'm going to be dressing this with.

In the meantime, as an addendum to my previous post asking four questions for Driven Magazine, could anyone who sends me an email please include a picture of their bike. Thanks guys and girls!
