I just got a tire changing lesson!

I brought my bike inside for Hubby to put my new brithday present Garmin Bike computer on (Woo Hoo!!!) ... and in the process started talking about how he and Vic (a friend cyclist) should give Vic's wife and I a tire changing lesson together. Hubby says, "Vic needs to get a tire changing lesson first." Apparently, Hubby is not impressed with poor Vic's tire changing skills!

Anywho, while he was working on the bike computer ... and after I was done staring at the sheer beauty of Baby (my bike) ... I started taking out the stuff from the guppy bag and asking questions about what you do with this and that. He finally says, "I'll give you a lesson when I'm done with the computer." And he did. He showed me a step and then I did it myself, from beginning to end, including taking off both front and back tires and putting them back on. Apparently, I have great tires that are easy to work with. They used to be his and he keeps saying he wants them back. Sorry dude! Go get your own! And he will, when he's ready to spend money on some.

He's a great teacher. I'm lucky.
