Go to the shop and buy stuff. Perhaps tight-fitting jerseys will help. I neither destroy (beyond repair) enough stuff nor have enough geekery that I want to buy (and can afford) to make buying stuff a sufficient excuse for going to the bike shop. Have to come up with other reasons like borrowing tools. I built (most of) my first wheel today. The mechanic teaching me got hungry and decided that I'd done enough for one session and he was going to finish it so everyone could go to dinner. But I got to take the hub and spokes off the old rim and lace it to the new rim and put it on the wheel truing stand before he took it away from me. -M |
