With my hobby of buying and selling bikes, I spend more than my share of garage time delving into the innards of the bikes.....and I admire what they enable the systems on a bike to accomplish. I just don't want one like that for myself........
You were a programmer??? Both of my parents are programmers. My dad writes code for the Limited Brands (Victoria Secret, Lane Bryant, Limited, Lim Too) all retail stuff, and my mom writes claims code for Nationwide Insurance.

Would you consider my bike easy...... or kind of inbetween old school and new school?
