And, one bike for the trainer, and one for the road.

I have 2 bikes and don't regret it. I was going to sell Pru when Bea came home. I debated to myself about selling or keeping. Pru even had a prospective buyer too. Decided that I needed a rainy day, occasional winter riding bike and Pru would do that in a heartbeat. AND if one's in the shop, I"m still satisfied-- It's all about me..

Whew! My most wonderfullest and fabulousest LBS fixed her all up in just 24 hours and I got to bring her back home. Unfortunately, it is blazing hot outside so I won't be riding her tonight. But I am very relieved to have her back in her place of honor in the spare bedroom. I do wish bikes would breed because a second bike may soon become a necessity.
Did I mention my awesome LBS? Only $15 in labor to true the back wheel, put on a new back tire, perform a full safety check, and make a few derailleur and brake adjustments. I was expecting a much higher bill. Placerville Bike Shop rocks!!!

Hey Sara. Glad you got your baby back. I know what you mean about how it feels good to know that you rode her enough to need a tune-up. My bike just started shifting on her own the other day for the first time, so she's due for some adjustments as well.
Dh said he might be able to fix her himself, but if he does take her in, she'll probably go in with the tandem which definitely needs a tune up before our century. So, I'll be out BOTH Baby (that's her name) and Burley (the tandem).
Anways, I'm happy you have been reunited with your baby and that she is now in good health.
