You forot to keep this on topic. You should have mentioned using an old gear wire as a leader.

Oh! Speaking of beer, some buddies and I went on a 33 mile ride today and got some beer at the fancy-pants restaurant at the turnaround point:
Mine was the stout on the right. The other ones were good too.

I once built a real junker of a bike as a joke. It only had a front brake, and I Tefloned the rim of the wheel to reduce stopping power. It was a 10-speed frame, so, of course, I put BMX handle-bars on it. As a head-badge for this rolling death-trap? I steamed off a Guinness Stout label.

Doesn't anyone monitor this forum?* I scrolled through today's offerings and noticed numerous threads having nothing to do with Bicycle Mechanics and many others that were a real stretch.
*If so, would it be possible to clean up this mess and get back to the business at hand?
