Huh. Multi quote rears its ugly head.

got my hands on a book about locally made bikes. Right from 1869 to the present. We had quite the bike building industry.

If a truck can manage with three speeds, a cyclist should be just fine with "only" ten.

Would depend on who's and or what narrative is being pushed. Even facts become fungible and maliable when enough money is on the table.

I'm sorry to hear that about your friend.
The slow failing of the human body and mind is hard to watch. We've been witness to the creeping decline of my step-father as vascular dementia ground away at the sharpness of one of the most interesting and intelligent humans I've ever known. Yesterday afternoon, the last of the flickering lights went out, and he passed peacefully. We are currently wading through a mixture of anguish and relief left in the wake of his exit.

I just realized it's Friday and I haven't been on a bike yet this week. Sunday is out. Could be today. I have to prep for some workers on Sunday but that's not much. December is a busy month.
