Deaf Pigeon is a team of fixed gear bike riders from the rainy city of Preston in the United Kingdom. Our small team has grown slowly, built from close friendships started through cycling. Through the years, we have seen many come and go leaving the Deaf Pigeon family as it is today.
This blog aspires to post interesting articles and personal experiences relating to all aspects of fixed gear bikes, riding and the culture that surrounds it.
Our good friend and camera-geek, Danny Cameron has got himself a demon of a new camera and me and Matt decided to get him out to test film us on the bikes and get some footage whilst we rode around Preston.
We've decided to throw together this trailer for a film that we're planning on getting finished early next year. If you want to get in on this, then drop us a message and we'll let you know about times.
Thanks to a conversation on twitter, we've created this lovely little calculator / table / chart for you to find out your current and maybe next bicycle gear ratio and how many skid patches you'll have when you use it.
The Red Bull Minidrome made it’s way to Manchester, and what an event it was. After seeing so many pictures and video’s of the London and Glasgow Minidrome’s i was excited to see what Manchester was going to offer up.Safe to say, i wasn’t disappointed... There was amazing racing, some tasty crashes and lots of fun!.
