How to shift bicycle gears & when
How to shift bicycle gears & when
I grew up when bikes were one speed
& a ten-speed was a rich boy’s toy
So I never knew
Once after I married I got a 5-speed
the handle grip twists & clicks to change
but never figured out which gear was high
or why you’d choose any one
I saw a man pedaling faster than his wheels
—Why? & if I’m going uphill?
Someday someone tells the secret &
then it all makes sense—is easier
—or they don’t
