Isn't that a pain in the arse?
I got a new bike in
March and the only miles on it are from being carried to the bike shop on the back of the jeep. I know that guy is tired of seeing me come in the door.

Your bike shop is close enough to ride to? That's convenient at least.

I'm wondering if, with a little research, this is something you can do yourself?

Just curious, how old was the mechanic?
