    um...........fix my bike?

    Boo hoo, sob, sob..............I had a puncture yesterday, I think you guys call it a 'flat'.

    Well, I thought it was about time I tried mending things myself, as most of you on this site put me to shame.

    So, took the wheel off, put the new tube in but couldn't get the wheel straight!...............damn, aint life a ***** at times!

    Had to give in and ask my partner how to sit the wheel in properly, nevermind, next time I shall do it all myself.

    So, cheers to TE forum.

    As with anything else, practice makes perfect. Did you have him show you exactly what he was doing so you're ready for next time?

    Hi Kali

    I sure did, mind you, I should have made some notes, my memory is really crap these days.

    Slightly off topic but I can 'cos it's my thread...............

    Your website Mid-Atlantic Images.com, is really interesting, your photos somehow have so much 'feeling' in them, I can't actually explain what I mean.

    C'mon girl, last updated November 2005............... You must put some up there.

    You see, because I know very little about the US, I always try and find out a little bit about the person I am replying to, hence I so enjoyed browsing your site.

    Heh, I've been too busy riding to take photos this year. I keep thinking about taking the camera with me on rides, so now that I have a bigger Camelbak I'll have to start doing that.

    And thank you for hijacking your own thread to compliment my stuff
