Default My Bike Is Done! (for now)

Pics can be found on my website: Bike Pics
Just finished it, and took it out for a ride. It was a blast! I went up hills no problem. I think I want a sprocket with fewer teeth because I felt like I was revving pretty high going only 20mph.

Earlier this week I took it out but the chain wasnt tight enough and it kept on bunching up in the 'gearbox' or whatever its called. After I tightened it I found that the chain kept coming off the sprocket, so I followed your guys' advice and filed the teeth down. Today I took it for a long 40 minute ride around the hills of Seattle, and it did great! Until it started raining.
When I got home I smelled like gasoline. Any remedy for this?
