Yea, I decided to get a junker to learn what I like by riding

thats what i did when i first started riding in the city.  it was an old junky murray road bike that i converted into a single-speed.  i called it 'Mur'.  it was heavy and the gearing was to low, but once i had some momentum i was able to keep pace with any of the biker dudes.  i smashed it up one night.  drunk driver, parked car, hospital.  big mess.  i got a schwinn traveler next and turned it into a fixed gear.  had it for a couple of years now.  it's a size to large, but its comfy.  now i got this great circuit that is about to be built up.  i'm about to start gushing...
