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)

Glad you're okay ChiDave. Having seen someone get t-boned
and die on the spot, I would say you were very lucky.

Oh man. When you told me about the crash (as you were handing me my lockring wrench)
you made it sound not nearly as bad as the pictures show. Jeez! I'm glad you're okay and
hope you have a good vacation out west.

btw: That's two threads about you on BF.net, sneaky.
