Leah, That was such a fun read! Made me laugh sitting here at my office computer. My dad was mechanically inclined but for bike stuff I was on my own! I rarely pumped up the tires (that's what we called it) on my really expensive Mongoose BMX bike. Mongoose was once upon a time a really good brand...we paid (my parents paid) $212 dollars for it in 1980. That was a lot of money that they really didn't have, bless them.
I once took a bike apart to see how it was made and could not re-assemble it. My dad and I took it to the LBS to have them do it. That was a humbling experience as the guy at the LBS looked at me with amusement as I glanced at he and my dad while I looked at the rad GT BMX bikes. Ugh. Humility is not fun to learn but great to have. Thanks for the topic, Doug > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
