"Only someone over 45 needs gears on a bike" or along those lines (though 51 myself). Indexed gears are a load of maintenance headaches we were sold as teenagers. It's amazing how you just find the right pace on a ss.

Talking of indexed gears... Friction shifters are still my choice for a geared bike ha ha they feel so good (for gears)

The benefits of SS'ing are endless...

My SS journey started when a fellow hubber wanted a "guided" ride at VG..

Psycho pitched up on a bike with ONE GEAR... ( GT Peace) ... ( Ritchey Rigid)

I told him.."dude!... I told you, concrete road then DaggaPad... It's not an easy route"

Jan said " it's ok, I've got a bell"

He BROKE me...

Ups, downs, everything...

He taught me something that day... A lot of things that day ....

Thanks to him I entered SSWC2012 the next year...
