The Happy Thread

Got my new forks fitted on the MTB and also a new FSA headset - annoyingly I was sold the wrong thing initially, so spent about 3 hours in traffic jams around Bristol trying to find a shop that sold the right headset for less than £60.

All good in the end though, smashing up Forest of Dean on Saturday :D

Just watched the second half of the Salford City Notts County match and all I can say is wow. 

Got me thinking though as this morning my son was saying something about a man who's been helping out in his class plays football and was gonna be on the telly, wondering if he plays for Salford (seeing as it's only down the road).

My dream bike (Echo 24") is on sale for much cheaper, but I did not even had a doubt that I do not want to sell my current bike, because it just fits me well!

Finally, I have a bike that I do not want to change! although that front V brake has to go shortly :/

proper schadenfreude this weekend; i sold a bike to a guy a few weeks ago, he's had a few problems with it and he over reacted every time. i've moved away from home so resolving it myself wasn't an option so we'd agreed that i'd refund him the cost of a comprehensive service and we'd call it quits. the bike got stolen and now i don't have to pay out. f**king score.

not really sadly, I try to keep to the 1 minimum (that works) per week and I try to ride more.

I just need to organize myself a bit better, but I am getting there!

When I binned my mtb at Afan I broke my forks.

Tredz agreed to the warranty and sent them to SRAM for repair.

SRAM have confirmed that they can't fix them, so I'm getting a new set.

They're going straight on eBay as I've upgraded since I broke them, I'm just glad they all agreed to sort it so quickly.

Customer wanted to buy a bike last thing this evening, the bike needed building, we didn't really have much time before we closed but got it built up for him.

He brought us all a beer to say thanks for getting it sorted at such short notice.

I really like my job :)
