WRENCHING ON MORE THAN THE BIKE

WRENCHING ON MORE THAN THE BIKE

FOR SOMEONE WHO TALKS ABOUT PREP all the time, you'd think I'd have noticed the conditions of my tires, earlier. But, there I was on a steep and dusty climb...

... puttin' down some power.

The tire slipped,
I eased off,
sat down.

PR gone.

Not the kind of thing you wanna do in a race.

The local shop was outta stock on my favored Terra Speed 45s,
ordering online would take too long.

What to do?

The rain bike's tires, were barely ridden.

While I swapped 4 tires...

  • broke beads
  • remounted
  • refilled

... I was lost in the inspiring words of a conference.

Which made me wonder...

... Why do I listen to so much political poison?

When I could do some wrenching...

... on my bike, and my soul?
