Kids these days don't fall for the old boiled lollies. They want bling
for their arses.

I don't think old bike frames quite qualify as bling or lure. I would
be more likely to get mugged and chucked in the river. My kids are
quite sick of getting old bikes (except the latest hand-me-down).

Thanks for the offer Adam, but I would hate to crash/damage someone
else's frame. I am going to have to stick to the high intensity MTB
training.

It is actually working better than the road k's. I really need to ride
harder on the roadie I think.

Brakes a bit too good for you, are they?

Actually, despite not one single negative experience with my v-brakes,
I've already had one with my disc brakes. I had a minor stack the
other week and moved the caliper ever so slightly, causing the brakes
to make a horrendous squealing noise much to other riders dismay.
Eventually someone stopped and fixed it for me.

So there. Definitly a downside. But I do like them. I feel a little
more in control of my braking these days.

That said, I think everyone should start mountain biking on a rigid
with centre pull brakes. People who start on disc braked 28 speed
beasts, are serious sissies.

HAR!

Where do they hide the extra gear? Is it a sekrit gear?

upright on the MTB some days
