Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

yeah, and to top it off, the above dish is a cold Calimari and Lobster salad. Anytime that much seafood talks to you, you KNOW it's a trap.

(and speaking of going out for a bike ride for fresh air, there's the HomeyFallFest saturday and the cyclocross race sunday. call me)

Since RELoad is making it now, here's my bag in progress (design stage):

https://www.syntheticpawn.com/junk/bagdesigns.pdf

I got the last one after being told that white gets really really dirty very easily and doesn't clean up that well.

That's one of the coolest designs. Be sure to post some pics when you get it.

@ HighPants..

that Caddy buckle is tiiiiight!!!

I love most things Caddy (nostalgia - my Gramps drove a yellow '79 and then my Dad drove it for a while when I was a kid.. I got to drive it for a minute before it completely bit the dust..)

HighPants it totally lying there. His bag is actually a looker - the kind that you don't see every day.
