Have you been able to do that since 9/11 ?

Freehub? Not freewheel? So an older bike? Either way, not something you're likely to be able to fix without a fairly complete bike tool kit -- and parts.

Looking at your packing list ... what is a mascot?

Getting a little further afield ... relating to another thread ... I notice in your pictures that your Brooks looks to be oriented fairly flatly. Am I seeing that correctly? I'm still trying to figure out the best angle for mine. Some of the people in the other thread suggested having the horn pointed slightly up. Any thoughts on angles?

Thanks!
