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)

I haven't really kept track of money spent so it's hard to say.

I'm not particularly "attached" to my mopeds but some **** just isn't for sale. I told him to build his own.

It is.

My thumb and forefinger have come really close to fully growing back and even my doctor is a little surprised. She said when a fingertip is severed, theres a decent chance of it growing back if even a small part of the cuticle is still intact.

Today I made breakfast for the Sqrl. Latet was paid $50 to ride some miles to a corporate office and put a reflector on one of their company beach cruisers. Then I had a Hawaiian pork & cabbage dish for lunch. Ooooh yeah

Earlier this year I decided that this would be the year I try racing at Kissena. Today I realized that I haven't ridden my geared bike since July, so as much as I love having it around, I'll probably end up selling it to finance some decent track wheels, maybe a frame. Hrm.

Wow man, that thing is awesome. 60mph too? Very cool. I've had a few Vespas and quite a few small bikes, never gotten my hands on a moped though. Yet.

Ridgewood. Apparently it's the new Williamsburg. Funny thing, the Mrs. and I moved to Ridgewood years ago because we thought Queens would never be 'hip'; now there are 3 new coffeeshops and a bookstore within blocks of our place. </rant> But yeah, it would be cool to have someone else to noob with.
