 BG> Yes,  it's all a game, and games are fun right.

Small point - "Horses for courses."  Around Joan's neck of the woods
there are no hills.  All the roads she rides are horizontal, and one
gear is usually quite adequate.  The 3-speed is good for dealing with
strong winds, for and against.  Having ridden around there on her
number two bike, which only has the one gear operable, I had no trouble
except where the bike track dips under a road bridge, but a burst of
high speed peddling down one side was enough to get me up the other.
The only hazards on that path were the flocks of Canuk geese which were
reluctant to move, and looked belligerently at us.

I have a sister-in-law who lives in Rosskilde, out from Copenhagen.
She has one bike she rides to the railway station, catches the train to
Copenhagen, them picks up her second bike from the bike park there, to
ride the last part to work.  After having had a couple of good bikes
stolen from the park, she got a rusty old wreck, which no one would
want to take.  That one has lasted.  There are no hills in Copenhagen,
and as far as I could see, *everyone* there has a bike.
