"Colonial Cruisers". Ya know Jim, I don't think I've ever heard or read that line before, but I gotta say I like it!

And yeah, while I know you're a "spoked wheel" kinda guy, your point about the "wagon wheels" being repairable(tire-wise with only a plug) while out trekking is a good one.

(...enjoy, ol' buddy!)

Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
