Overcoming

"You have overcome, because greater is the one who is in you, than he who is in the world"

Dude, seriously. What is wrong with bike shop assistants? I'll come back to that question.

For several months now, I have severely neglected my beloved Gigi. I dont want to have to worry about these so called "important" things like cleaning the bike chain, checking the tyres, changing cables, tuning the brakes (do you even tune brakes?). I just want to ride and hope that the bike fairies will deal with the maintenance.

But alas, no such luck.

To my horror, I discovered rust on Gigi....it was at this point that I decided I had better get my act together and start to look after her.

Unfortunately, there was one monster obstacle in my way, that being...........the absolute retardedness (yes that's a word) of my local bike shop. I cop less abuse in a Parramatta jersay at a Bulldogs game.

However, refusing to be overcome by their poor display of human interaction and customer service, I bit the bullet and finally took Gigi in for her first health check.

Yes, I took Oliver in for back up.

Yes, they thought he was my husband.......yes that was weird.

So right now I am bikeless, and the poorer for it. I miss my Gigi.....
