I'm just trying work out if there are many of you guys riding single speed regularly in the Yorkshire and north east area

Looking to get like minded riders together for bike rides or general banter.

I'm in Northumberland, own a singlespeed and ride regularly.
In fact, I own 2, aswell as bikes wth gears and tend to ride them at random.
Does that help?

Leeds. Currently geared but not against a little ss action, only went back to gears due to knee pain and steep hills!

Can I then direct you to this facebook link:

Obviously some are to far away to make regular meet ups but it may allow you to find guys and gals close in your area who could go out for rides.

I'm using Facebook page as a way of grouping you guys together so you arrange rides but please tell me if there is a better way.

Team kit is under development too and I know some will be racing next year, but getting people together near each other for rides is the main idea.
