Have you always been a biker by Driusan (2.00 / 0) #7 Mon Nov 06, 2006 at 03:04:03 PM EST
and I just didn't notice, or is this a new development? and since when do you ride a ss?

whenI first got mybike shoesit was the winter, and it kindasucked. then irealied that if i wear two pairs of (cotton) socks, its remarkably warm, even with theshoes being designed for ventilation.

butthen, i guess you've already discovered thatwhat with your wool socks and all.

I've been biking for awhile. Mostly occasion single track and some road. Getting more into long distance road lately, mostly due to my current bike ownership (ie. I dont have a good mountain bike frame and can't afford one).

But in terms of bike commuting farther than 1km I just started 1.5-2 years ago. And I built my single speed in July and have been riding it daily since mid-Aug and plan on riding it ad infinitum.

To me a nice SS compared to a geared bike is like the Mona Lisa compared to a stick drawing that I did on a napkin while drunk at a bar.

You know.. by Driusan (2.00 / 0) #10 Sat Nov 11, 2006 at 06:27:42 AM EST
I just saw the Mona Lisa two days ago. It wasn't that great. It's crowded, in a room full of tourists gawking because it's the Mona Lisa, not because they love it. On the wall in the room that houses it, there's a beautiful, huge 10mx10m or so oil painting that goes completely ignored. I don't think a single other tourist in the room even noticed it when I was there.

Hrm. I should probably write a diary instead of a comment..
