Dear All,
It’s a month since I was dropped off for a repair to reacquaint my chainstay with its dropout.
Postcard from another threadSorry not to have called or written with an update on my place in the queue. I’ve been kept in the dark myself. Kind of like you guys in the shed (joke).
Santa has nothing on this workshop. It's full of flashy
fellows, some of whom look down their stems at me. I'm regarded as a bit simple, a rube wrapped inside an Enigma. Not having decals is like showing up at a nice restaurant without a tie.
The toe clips certainly don't help. A passing critic asked if they're
a fetish. He appeared to be salivating slightly.
You've never seen so many disc brakes! "How on earth do you
stop? a high end Excel asked the other day, aghast at my calipers. "A responsive, predictable, and wonderfully compliant bike wouldn't be caught dead wearing those." Someone needs to learn manners.
I understand Langster has been getting out the most in my absence, which I trust isn't making the heart grow fickle. Good for you, L. Seriously, you're welcome to the winter roads.
See you soon, spokes crossed.
