    Golly gee, I must be hanging out with the wrong group of people then.



    Oh and by the way, one of my bikes and both of my husband's bikes have a 26t front chainring and a 32t rear.

    Every few months or so someone has to come on this list and pontificate about how "most people" don't need a triple chainring, don't need a small front ring, don't need a big cassette, and so on.

    So please, do point out once again how lame my husband and I are.

    Most people don't need a Subaru.

    Don't forget she will do anything for beer and ice cream. You don't even have to provide them together.

    Just 'cause I own one doesn't mean I drive it much.

    Speaking of cheese... we went to the Cheese Factory to get some lunch last Friday after riding Bolinas Ridge. I like cheese!

    Like I said, I'm clearly hanging out with the wrong crowd.
