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?

Seriously though, I enjoy drinking and I usually do it quite a bit. When it gets to the point that you can't do things without drinking through them, before them, or being drunk to be able to do them...then you might have a problem. Just because I like to finish my day with a 6 pack or a bottle of wine, doesn't mean I'm an alcoholic. I still get up and go to work in the morning and function just fine. I'm just a connoisseur of the finer things in life. Even if the finer things for the night happen to be a bottle of $5 wine.

Haha it took me a minute to figure out what your meant because 6000jpy is 61usd, but then I realized you were probably thinking 6000¥ = 6000$

Well I assumed that 6000y wasn't as much as 6000 usd, but 6000 is still a large number.

Why is it that people who own bike shops that sell online can post links to their products all day long, but a private individual who actually creates something and post it with out even mentioning money or price, they delete the post immediately? BF I do not understand your rules.

The rules are very, very simple.

You cannot advertise without a premium membership.

Thank goodness I had that slightly lower gear this morning. Wind straight in my face pretty much all the way to work.
