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)

Tell yourself that all you want. I think you would find, if you just gave it a try, that calling me a rude ******bag would be much a more satisfying release of the offense you take at my posting style(PM me if you want I won't report it.) Being pointlessly cruel towards the blameless and putting people who make ridiculous arguments in their place are two very different things. Human nature general makes the former seem abhorrent and induce guilt while making the latter supremely satisfying.

No, I've tried that approach once or twice. It just doesn't work for me. Maybe I'm the unusual one though, and everyone else would be like you if they had the balls.

I said it once, I'll say it again. I'd really appreciate it if people wouldn't try to regulate communities they're not a part of.
