Mid-Week Blues! ...or a Bicyclers Lament?
Well, I'm not doin' wheel-well today because I went to replace the rear wheel rim only to find that the rim the bike shop sold me is too small! damn it! I took the thing back, after already removing old rim, tire and inner tube only to find that he has to order one from the supplier because he is out-of-stock! So, training is on hold for the next week or so until I get a new wheel rim for my relic-of-the-past 10-speed!
"...So, how do I get these gears off anyways?" I asked. It seems that they have a specialized tool to remove that rear gear set, but they don't tell you that when you buy the rim either!
Now, since I am still looking for a new bicycle, this just might be the nail that seals the coffin on my "Mean, Lime-Green, Two-Wheeled Ridin' Machine" for a while.
...I'll keep you posted!

Or is it who put the pig on my blig?
Well, I've already had my 2.0 kids per household. Any more then that will just cramp my style, so maybe riding around on two-wheels will do me a favor especially with all those women begging to see what's worn under my kilt! ;-)
Not to worry, my legs are large enough from all the running I do, my worry if if my knees will hold out.
