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, for sure. i have a lot to learn...i can do everything i need on a regular basis just fine on my own. things that aren't everyday things i need some knowledge on.

i couldn't see that ebay sale, by the way.

and sinfield, that really sucks. how bad is it? i hate facial injuries.

oh, and the "late to work and levelling the playing field" thing...nah, we leave his house pretty early, and this **** never happens that far into our rides.
