Miscellaneous questions



My beautiful blue Booh is parked behind my office today, right next to
a Trophy.  They look cute together... but I'm wondering if I'll find a
bunch of minor victories out there when I go home. 

(ba Bum bum)

OK, OK, I'll stop now.  But I do have a couple of questions.


For the first mile or so, it's basically impossible for me to shift out
of first gear... after that, it's a little stiff, but OK.  Is this
just normal new bike stiffness?

I love the bike except when I'm trying to park it... then I'm reminded
of Abe Lincoln's famous quote that a man's legs should be just long
enough to reach the ground.  Mine barely are.  Would I be better off
talking to Corbin or Sargent?  I'm not too far from Hollister, so I
could easily go down to Corbin and deal with them in person.

A few years ago I broke my thumb pretty badly in a car accident, and
it's not too fond of the Sprint's clutch lever.  Is it possible to get
an adjustable one?  Or even better, can I make the spring weaker? I 
live in San Francisco, and there are seven stoplights and three stopsigns 
on the 1-mile ride between home and office.  I don't suppose the
Trophy's lever fits?
