Icke, you just answered your own question.
with front brake, you have two brakes (fixed included as one), which is legal and complied with UK law.
on a freewheel bicycle, a rear brake is recommended instead of a front IF you're insisted on riding with one brake instead of two (which is idea).
If I was going to ride with one brake on a bike with a freewheel .. it would be the front ... far more stopping power. What made you think this was a good idea?

Of course you need drivers. It's not magic fairy land. Which version of windows was it?
I still don't see the point of running linux at home unless you are prone to excessive geekery (I've done it - waste of time). Most funky hardware (Powertap, Garmins) will have drivers written for Windows, Mac if you're lucky and Linux once in a blue moon.
I did exactly the same thing about 5 years ago ... fucked about with various Linux Distros and then decided I couldn't be bothered with the hassle of repos, install the JDK via building an RPM/DEB package from source etc. etc, configuring X (I know you don't have to anymore). Then having to use crap Open source versions of the same programs I can get for nothing on Windows via MSDNAA. (I don't mind using VIM, XMMS, MPlayer etc because they work well, but Open Office and Eclipse do my head in).
Run OpenBSD at home when not using Windows 7, OpenBSD is a piece of piss to update and keep running compared to Linux (but I only use it really to learn C) ... but as a .NET developer I tend to be mostly booting Windows.

'The Expendables' Trailer HD[/ame]I know I am going to see this about 6 times down the cinema and then buy the Blu-ray even though I dunno what a Blu-ray player is. Good thing my sister works down the cinema.

Just for you nefarious

Yeah, the law courts are just at the end of my street. Shame King of Concrete got shut down. Portsmouth City Council really let the skatepark go for a few years. I think they thought that they could run it into the ground and shut it down at one point but everyone in the local community kicked off and they're slowly sorting it out now so maybe they'll bring it back one day.
97was the best year for me. I was 16 and it was sooo rad
Lined the lables on the valves ... attention to detail.

all town centers are shit, But what about riding around, think of Western ave, sandbanks road, glenfurness, Branksome park road, the seafront, poole park, the chines, holes bay road,
I could go onGets a bit boring mate because I have seen this stuff for the last 27 years.
Used to be a lot nicer before they "modernised" the quay ... would see proper massive ships (with sails sometimes) ... small navy vessels ... fishing fleet ... pretty much all gone.
There used to be a really nice museum down the quay and it had different stuff about the harbour as you walked up each floor ... all gone replaced by "The Mint" and "Dundees".
