The Retirement Thread

[PaulSB]

Good day to one and all. It's 14C here with greyish sky, I have the feeling the sun will shine later.

Mrs P began snoring at 3.30. At 4.00 I departed for the spare room - that didn't happen 40 years ago I have not slept since. Mr Grumpy later I suspect.

Have I mentioned my friend's bike? I have a very dear friend who hasn't ridden for two years. I finally rescued the bike from her garage a few days ago. Last night I cleaned it, you know hardened oil and crap to scrape off jockey wheels etc. It now gleams thanks to Mr Sheen.

Today will be new cables, pads, tubes, chain and good check over. Then down to the LBS for a professional view - I already have concerns about the cassette and chain rings.

I'm determined to get my friend riding again.

After I passed my test I nearly bought a new mini, a black one for £475. I bought a year old Cortina ELO 551C instead for a couple of quid dearer.
