Jason "Trash Talk" Haggard occasionally writes a column in my Friday Fitness Fax newsletter. He placed 6th out of 40 riders in the Crankmas Alley Cat race Saturday, which is an urban bike race in the bike messenger style of riding. You need to know the town in addition to being comfortable riding among traffic. This particular race consisted of checkpoints where racers purchased food to donate to the needy.
The group that puts these Alley Cat races on seems to allow all kinds of bikes, so you don't have to worry about breaking your neck on a fixed gear. Then again, isn't style worth a little bit danger?
