Title: Fixie riders to do Tour of California
Post by: zzpza on 13 February, 2009, 08:43:50 am

"Eight riders from the globetrotting MASH SF crew plan to ride the entire 750 miles of the Amgen Tour of California on fixed gear bikes. The eight-member MASH unit plans to ride seven- to 12-hour days, leaving ahead of or after the peloton. These fixie hipsters even have sponsorship from CLIF BAR, which bills itself as the nutrition sponsor for MASH's Tour of California ride."

Are these the same lunatics as those who rode RAAM on fixed (surly steamrollers)?
