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)

For the record I was chasing an angry husband. In any case it was better than being awash in a boatload of seamen, right Willy?

So you were chasing an unwilling malegoat? Well, split hairs if you like, really, we don't need to know any more.

Look, this guy was climbing a tree to get away from you:

Yeah but the gloves give me a nice tight fit whereas the grocery bags are just all over the place with suffocation possibilities. Suffocation is not cool, not cool at all.

Asphyxiation via vomiting up wild turkey though, now that is cool.

Well when you're hung like I am you need to go the extra mile to find a snug fit - f.ex. the gloves!

And don't start talking about "glove fingers" either because we all know that's not the case!

I am glad to hear the surgical industry realized there was someone who could use their ill-fated "For Baby's Only" line of latex hand protection.
