The Lecture

I took both my bikes in for a tune up this week - as until today I wasn't exactly sure which bike was going to travel to Europe with me.

I read over the receipt and burst out laughing... was I being lectured by my bike mechanic? Indeed I was! This was the comment written on the receipt:

"Bike runs great, but could use a bath a little more often. A clean bike is a FAST bike."

He's saying you are a slob with the bike, nice wrench. No messing around. Congrats on your big training weekend. 70-mile ride on Saturday and EFA today, sweet.
