I was watching RoTJ last night and started lolling at Ackbar... hehehe.
On topic: Congrats to Maki/Wes/Keith on the race results.. all of you guys are making me rethink my roadie ways, and threatening the health and happiness of my home with thoughts of another bike build that there isn't room for
Also -- on "dingle-speeds" -- are these done with a Surly dingle cog? Are these readily available anywhere in town? I was thinking about doing something with dingle rear/road double on front for a higher commuting gear (for flats) and lower one for windy days / lots of uphills.
If it's a 2 speed fixed than the Surly is the only option at the moment I think. They are fairly easy to get these days..we have em at C.S, Parliament. They are 3/32 only tho. For S.S. there are a wealth of options.
I enjoy a good long road ride or city cruise as much as anyone but a good off-road ride....devoid of cars...is far more relaxing and a ton more fun IMHO.
