Title: My first Rohloff moment.......
Post by: sarissa on July 23, 2005, 04:31:59 PM
Second outing for my Thorn Enduro (first in town)

8:00AM collecting a parcel at the local sorting office for this cool jersey:

when I saw a man get into hs car and just sit there next to my bike. Returned post haste to protect it, whereupon said man gets out and starts firing questions - Thats the Rohloff hub gear isn't it?  I read the review in C+ - what's it like to ride? etc etc .

This is even better than having a dog (too messy and need attention)or a baby ( too noisy, too messy and needs too much attention). Total strangers smile at you, they walk into lamp posts doing a double take.

I would take it to the LBS but don't want to be mobbed like movie star!

Not only are Cars Coffins, but Satanic Coffins.

The head of the Latin Cross should be at the head of the coffin, but it is at the foot. I can only suppose this signals satanic ceremonial.

But only a Parson or an Undertaker would notice!

Nice Jersey - where can I get one?
