So proud of myself

[Trekhawk]

I've always felt that I was not very mechanically inclined - due in part to my childhood. I've always done my work on my bike with Thom's help. Some things I've totally mastered - okay really one thing - changing tires. And I'm pretty good at retaping my handlebars and finishing them off with twine.

Today I had to adjust the fenders on my rear tire. Not a big deal except that the fenders attach where the brakes are, which means loosening my brakes, fixing the fender, reattaching the brakes. I HATE brake work. Mostly because if I get it wrong, bad things can happen.

Hey Veronica - well done. Im not in the least mechanically minded but I have been forced to fix stuff when my husbands been away and it makes me feel very proud of myself. Not talking bike stuff though still learning my way thru that.

Way to go.
