Boring Bike gear and Dad

I'm visiting my Dad today and he's a piece of work! Unappreciative and not a good listener unless it's what he want to hear. Today I'll ask him what he wants out of our visits. I'll disengage my expectations from his and see if I can "sync up". I believe this is the only way we won't kill each other. More importantly, keep my myself whole.

LaGrange nite gave me the push last night to buy a 12-25 to get a bigger top end gear. I need to decide weather I want to change out the cogset on my training wheels. or (use a 2nd set of wheels with the 12-25) Completely swaping-out wheels. The wheel swap sounds easy but isn't because the hub has slightly different spacing and so it messes with the gearing adjustment.
One might not seem to think this is very important; But... I keep loosing the sprints and I'm blaming it on the equipment. Now if I loose the sprint, it'll be me.

I need a physiologist to tell me I'm not crazy just obsessed. My excuses have come to an end.
