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)

cause a fixer is a person in your neighborhood
he's a person that you meet
when you're walking down the street
he's a person that you meet each day

I really miss sesame street.....

Did you go for the Urban Salvage and Waste Engineering degree or did you opt for the shorter Livestock Management technical course?

Bikes: 2012 Motobecane Vent Noir; 2016 Mercier Kilo TT Pro

I'm a computer guy -- back-end administration and development stuff, promoted out of front-end support years ago -- and I almost have an AA degree, nearly got my MCDBA, bought RHCE study guides, and started coursework to be a Chiropractors Assistant (CA).

That said, I am an ordained minister of the Universal Life Church (for fun and profit) and I did purchase the "Ministry in a Box" which includes an honorary Doctorate of Divinity (DD) degree. Technically, I am a doctor.

'nother law school student......

I used to work at a firm where one of the IP partners rode a surly steamroller bike into work. he kept his bike in his office, which in turn gave me good argument for keeping my bike in my office.
