comment Does a typical floor pump have an integrated one-way valve?
+1 I too press down on the press down on the presta valve to make sure that it is moving freely.

comment Which parameters should I track with bicycle computer so I can analyze changes in my riding?
I've often wanted an air speed sensor as well as the road speed. I'm not sure how feasible it is though.

comment Why are bicycles considered vehicles and not “walking aid”?
@Unsliced that was one of the examples used. If you are walking then you are a pedestrian. If you are scooting with one foot on the pedel then you are riding.

I was reading in the CTC Cycle magazine that there is case law that covers when you are riding a bicycle and when you are a pedestrian. In summary if you have at least one foot on a pedal you are riding.

Thanks. It was more would a 10 speed cassette and chain work with existing chainrings or do I need to change the whole lot together. I still use a downtube shifter set on friction so that will be alright to start with and the derailleur was changed recently for a 10 speed one chosen on availability rather than specifications.
