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)

i'll coming down to SoCal soon, just a few more things to work out so i can make it a business trip, but i'll be bringing a bike to see if SoCal can live up to the hype, but then if there's no beef then there's no hype, nothing but love... getting wasted in the morning is so much fun...

Bay area then. Very few of us LA folks actually live in Los Angeles, but we all refer to ourselves as such, I assumed you yankees were the same.

Anyway, yeah I'm just starting beef just as an excuse to get our two groups together and ride, eat tacos, drink, race, and all around have some fun. I really like the idea of a series of friendly races. Let's start working out a timeline and making this shizzle happen.

Hahahaha

I just had the best idea:

We should all descend on Bakersfield and **** **** up.

Not that they'd notice, though, because Bakersfield is so ****** already.

Oh ****. I forgot San Diego. Where does thier loyalty lie? Speaking of San Diego, I think I'm going to be heading down there in a few weeks for a weekend, on a diplomatic mission, to speak of an alliance against the North, for unitied we surely will suceed. Either that or we'll ride and drink, and eat tacos...One of the two.

What's a henwiegh you ask? About 2.5 pounds, depending on the hen.

This works better in real life.

I do believe you are mistaken. Juvi would mention how I am "killing him." He would tilt his head up as he says this.

Well, we're having the next meet-n-greet up here and the NAHBS race is next month, so you guys have plenty of opportunity. Although maybe between the two we should have a SF-goes-to-LA event.

BTW, I need some other SF'rs to help me plan the meet-n-greet....

Vomit, this would have been so much more eloquent if you ended said statement with "Nobody ***s with the Jesus."
