Lots of gratuitous pictures of track bikes* mainly for Julian.This site is by Andy White who's a Melbourne bike courier and obviously loves track bikes and photography. Fyxomatosis is an infectious (and possible fatal) track bike disease that causes the sufferer to ride and take photos simultaneously.
*Track bikes are lean and mean with no gears or brakes, and for some reason are coming into vogue. I noticed them quite a bit in NY (that's my picture of one). Andy doesn't believe riding a track bike is any more dangerous than a standard bike - because "the rider is aware of their limitations, they avoid danderous situations" ... h'mm [Melbourne Weekly Magazine June 6-12, 2007]
