Don’t try this at home..it’s all in your head(set)

Going out this morning, ready to ride and finding out.. holy shit something is very wrong here. Mind you I was also someone who made a big stink about people getting out and riding. Now
here I was about to be late to the team ride, argh.

Lucky for me a few things went right. My place was close enough that I was able to crawl back home, tail between legs, get my trusted bike and meet the group up north.
But here’s where have a cool bike shop comes in handy. Alex at Roscoe Village Bikes (one of our sponsors..hoorah!) was able to after checking a few other things fix and have the new ride running perfectly. Many thanks to him and thanks to Lesley for ordering up some goodies
for my bike.

I think all of this is also tribute to a long winter and just being bored. Next time I’ll save the excitement of building my bike for a shop.

Oh yeah I also got a flat on the way back. All the guys made fun of me (for this and the earlier problem) but that’s because they’re dicks but I still like them anyway.

P.S. An acknowledgement to Leigh Valletti for part of the post’s title.
