Not the greatest components and a bit heavy (ca. 26-lbs/12 kgf), but the ride and handling was the equal or better of many more expensive bicycles. -- Tom Sherman - Near Rock Island

Skip: Aren't bicycles a little off topic for this thread? :-) The Germans have made a pretty decent internally-geared hub as well, though it initially had a lot of problems. It could stand to have a couple more gears, but who's complaining? (Please God, don't let them make a 16-speed hub until I can afford it, OK?) The French actually make one of the best afterket pistol grips for a number of semi-autos. It's concave, so it fits the boney and fleshy parts of the hand better, and it's thinner. But for some reason the company has a German-sounding name: Trausch. Lots of good French folk are on the right side of this thing, too, in spite of their misleading press. The Van Gogh murder was something of a turning point, not just for the Dutch. It'll get sorted out, or shorted out. -- --Scott "skip" <skip@qualitybikes.com > wrote in message news:nP-dnfqZ1YNZMHfcRVn-oQ@comcast.com... > > "Tom Sherman" <tsherman@qconline.com> wrote in message > news:34v8rqF4e734rU1@individual.net... >> Edward Dolan wrote: >> >>> ...

I bought a camera from the Netherlands and it came wrapped in the front page of a newspaper showing a full color shot of Van Gogh's body on the Amsterdam street. He was shot nine times, stabbed multiple times, had his throat slit, and a letter threaten the lives of others was attached to him by a knife in the chest. It wasn't a pretty sight. He had been riding his bike. skip

Skip: I have a CZ 75B 9mm that has the Traucsch grips, because the normal ones are too fat for my hand. (I have some sort of nerve impairment, I think, originating in the shoulder.) That's too heavy and big to carry on the bike so I got a Kahr P9 (also 9 mm). It's stainless with some sort of polymer for the frame, and since it's single stack the grip is just fine for me. If Theo Van Gogh had carried one he'd probably be alive, and those jihadists would have had a nasty surprise. As for the French, well I guess Lance is going for a seventh isn't he? (Sorry about wandering off topic again.) Frankly, I wish he'd ride in the Giro. All the major contenders would have to follow him there or be considered also-rans in the TdF, and the Giro would become a significant competitor to the TdF for top stage race. Well, it won't happen but it's a thought. -- --Scott "skip" <skip@qualitybikes.com > wrote in message news:cLOdnd16yrCHO3HcRVn-qQ@comcast.com... > > "Freewheeling" <email_at_bottomofpost@bigfoot.com> wrote in message > news:352j9bF4hb904U1@individual.net... > >> > <snip> > >> The French actually make one of the best afterket pistol grips for a >> number of semi-autos.

But even worse than the Muslims are the liberals who make excuses for them. Why the hell don't the Muslims murder these g.d. liberals if they want to kill somebody. I guess it may be because they know that liberals are no threat to them and are potentially craven allies. God, do I ever hate liberals - or did I already say that in another post. -- Regards, Ed Dolan - Minnesota

Well, there are always lots of good folks who are on the right side of things, but I go by what their governments do with respect to how they conduct themselves with respect to the US. Europe has a tremendous problem with their Muslim immigrants from North Africa and the Middle East and we shall see how they are going to deal with them. Most European nations have a much stronger central authority than does the US, and they can deal with them if and when they want to. My own feeling is that Europe will have to be struck by something on the order of 9/11 before they wake up. Chirac is as bad as DeGaulle and resembles him in every way. Because of the history of the past century, I will NEVER look to Europe for any guidance on things political. I believe the US should start playing off the various European nations against one another. France is not our ally. We can write off Germany too if need be. There are plenty of other European nations who hate both those nations and we can ally ourselves with them over and against France and Germany. There ought to be severe penalties for opposing the US in the world. We need a much tougher foreign policy and should take the gloves off. France should be made to pay for their treachery. -- Regards, Ed Dolan - Minnesota
