Dang you 3-speed havers, dang you all to heck. You can see it in my mountain bike, it really just wants to be an old english roadster.
3 speed-itis is a terrible diasease to contract. You have my sincerest sympathy. It has taken down many mountain bikes, way before their time. Be careful you don't give it to the rest of the family, as it is fairly contageous. Between the Red Coats and Raleigh's, those Brits have really taken their toll on this country.
Please excuse me now. My tea and biscuit is waiting. :>)
