- heckj: surprisingly pleased to find a gist of mine (http://gist.github.com/284927) has been forked 16 times
- heckj: Enjoying the riding, but found my bike prefs are way different than 10yrs ago when I bought this one. New bike parts in the future, at least
- heckj: Got my old bike fixed up, riding it to get groceries, exercise, and generally use the car even less.
