To All You Fixies

[Joshua85]

this also goes all to everyone else, but mainly to fixies just because they sometimes don't have brakes. Please be safe, a friend of mine rides a fixed gear bike and got hit by a car the other night, the car drove off and left her in the road with 8 broken teeth and a jaw cracked in 3 spots....she is fine, the doctors did some amazing work on rebuilding the teeth and now her jaw is wired shut for awhile.

so please be safe

Bummer about the accident, glad to hear that she's ok. Do you have any details of what happened? Was she wearing any safety gear / using lighting? Was the fixed gearing a factor?
