And I love rummaging through your stuff, though lately about 75% of the stuff that's ts left outside with a free sign is just unusable garbage people are trying to throw away without going to the dump.

Today I think I might be ready to try a bigger gear on my fixed gear bike.
Rode the MUP 30 miles this past Sunday and was able to maintain a pretty good pace for quite a while. Passed quite a few roadies. One guy tried to keep up for a bit and I beat him up a little - dangled off the front, soft pedaled to let him catch up, surge just a little... He was trying to chat with me about the fixed gear bike and I could see that he was struggling to catch his breath, talk and keep up at the same time. Was fun. Ain't gonna lie.
Then I tried to keep up with four guys who were working real well together. Was not fun.
So yeah, the bike is currently at 48/16 but I might put a 15 tooth cog on the other side, if only for the MUP, to see how it feels. Just felt like saying that.

She sounds very intolerant of the vast majority of ordinary people and her response is to fantasize about intentionally pissing people off.
I am a cyclist too, a real one who wears an actual helmet because I care about my safety. I don't tell people that they are **** heads and couldn't care less what they drive. I am neither hell nor chaos nor anyone's enemy.
Someday she will make real money and I'll probably stop to help her with the flat tire on her Mercedes which she doesn't know how to change.

The stuff was great but nobody bought it because nobody really thought of them catering to the opposite gender.

I found it to be a satire of a cyclists ability to 'ruin someone's day' by simply riding a bicycle. As if that's actually what we're out there to do. How else do you explain the situation of someone with two lanes to pass you on an quiet road yet still be filled with enough rage to honk, yell, and/or give you the finger? Maybe I'm naive. I just took it to be humorous and not actually mean-spirited.
