Hi Chuck - yeah, that's one of my sites and it's sort of just another area on the web for myself (and anyone else who's interested) to share track/fixie stuff. The site has nearly unlimited bandwidth and storage so it's a particularly good place to post videos.
I enjoy that photo you pointed out also. There's something about wheel covers that really completes a bike, IMHO. I just bought a set of Colnago wheel covers and also recently picked up some vintage Dura Ace ones too.
With some luck in my schedule I may be bringing some of these bikes to the VR.
