  1. …is the final year of “Hare Rabbitt’s Poker Club.” … red faux crocodile, anyone?
    Noooooooooooooooo! Why?

    Get a shaft drive. Reliable and easy(ish) to maintain. A lot easier than chains of belts.

  2. 1. Table, I should add. Sweet red octogon of poker despair and triumph. ??? How do you know about my game? Anyway, all things have an end and I’m excited about releasing myself from this responsibility. I will admit that doing so conflicts with my belief that home games are the basis of poker, the grassroots, you might say, but someone else needs to shoulder the burden soon. I’ve run the game for dog’s years.

    2. I am afraid I will have trouble finding a travel/long distance appropriate bike without a shaft drive, which I greatly prefer, but maybe there’s some hope in your statement.

    1. 1. Well that is part of the question. My apartment building is a high crime area, with break ins, vandalism, theft on a weekly basis but I am stubborn.

      2. Yes, that and executing better are what keep me interested these days.
