Never rode with that lot again
I think that group were absurdly rude to you - actually I'm a bit surprised you would consider riding with them even once, since they were obviously so incompetent that they couldn't control their bikes without keeping both hands firmly on the bars!
Actually downtube levers are a bit modern for me:
So a toptube shifter wouldn't have been as bonkers as I first thought.
Hmmm, I've painted the frame and bought a friction thumbie now so it'll have to wait for now.
