BOF 1

5.2.2kX

Begin the Boring Old Fart era! It's official! I've got nothing to say but boring, stupid stuff. If yr saying, "That's been the drill from the beginning," well, I'll accept that. If I amused one person (Alan), that's enough. But I'm afraid it's BOF from now on. Witness:

I bought a bike seat for Ez! It's one that mounts on the back of a bike, so instead of putting it on Chuck, I snagged my old, beloved, CroMoly Gary Fisher "Aquila" hard-tail off the wall and set it up. I took it for a spin and the shifter for the rear derailleur didn't work. I feared that the derailleur failed (it's been on its last gear for a while), and it took the shifter with it. Plus the front wheel was out of true, so a trip for a tune up was necessary. I didn't like the place I got Chuck tuned, so I tried a new place. I liked it a lot. The mech did try to tell me that the shifter and the derailleur were two separate pieces and one not working did not mean they were both broken. I told him that I realized that, but to please give the derailleur a close inspection.

The bike's back. All is well. We ride Saturday. And Sunday. And forever.
