Just too funny. Something I never considered...

A triple on a full on TT bike. spinning at 150rpm. Oh my. Now I think triples are absolutely wonderful for those who wants or needs it. It gives you more flexibility in the gear you want to ride.

Nothing more stupid than grinding your way up a steep hill (6-9% or even a 15% grade) on a corncob with 39/54 chainring. I've watched others smile and pass me up the hill as they spun their cranks. And all I could do was ...

Anyway, my father used to tease me about my workout on a bike. He suggested that I use a beach cruiser single speed with a mustache bars and solid rubber tires. And while at it, put a rack with pannier on both side. He added that I would get a much better work out.

How can I argue with such perfect logic?

maybe I will deck out a beach cruiser with a fixed gear, my speedplay pedals, and replace the wide comfy spring loaded seat with a sella Itallia racing saddle. Ofcourse, I would need to attach a streamer on the bar plugs and a small bicycle bells on the handle bar. A generator with a head light and a tail light, a kick stand, fenders. Did I miss anything??

My reply was: I don't think logically like that. Color matching is logic and styling is logic in my books So I'm vain to some degree.

And guys are slave to fashion too. look at all the barneys. Dressed like a members of CSC, Discovery...
