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)

Beginning 49, today!! Gorgeous day here for a little 50 miler and hot chocolate after. Now I'm having birthday pizza as my little girl dances to the sugarplum fairy music and my son blows the whistle on his Lionel. My bride is making a cake.

There was a guy a while back who started a thread titled "Argh I Hate My City" or something, and someone said "Move, then," and he said "I would, but I'm fifteen." I don't remember who he was, but perhaps he'll throw in here.

Personally, I'm 25.

357 days till I hit the big diptych. Then another year before 21. It's depressing; I could have my BA by then.
