No, this isn’t a Flickr group for old track racers who hang their bikes and up and call it quits. It’s a group focusing on one of the defining characteristics of track bikes; the track ends. Also called track dropouts, they’re those marvelously-sculpted or machined plates that hold our chains in tension and keep our wheels moving. Bishop Bikes has put together a Flickr pool honoring Track Dropouts. If you’re a photographer or a framebuilder, head on over and join the pool and submit your work!
