The really scary picture is on the "symmetrispokes" page
where he's wearing his NRA T-shirt. As he's American, I
doubt he's actually being ironic about his love of guns.

Actually, I was, and I don't smoke cigarettes either
(since 1968.)

Believe it or not, that Web page was a _joke_!

I'm generall opposed to the private ownership of firearms.
The shirt was a road find, I only wear it for the odd photo
op and sometimes for Halloween.

Wow! A post from the man who's excellent article on cabling and derailleur operation allowed me to sort out my damned Shimano 600 on my No2 bike 😄

Hat's off to the bearded bike God 😉

Sheesh! Next, you'll be telling us that POWerwheels are just
some kind of very elaborate hoax.

ps, When oh when are you going to fix the link to the
'Version With Frames And Cool Animations!'?

That's ruined my mental image of you riding around redneck
country on a Raleigh Twenty, occasionally dismounting to
perforate a road sign with your .44 Magnum ;-)

I read through, to see if there were any hints ... and I
noted a love for Quebecois chips and gravy. (even in
MacDonalds)

traditional 20th century scottish food you'd think I could
stomach "poutine", but I couldn't. I almost didn't finish
