Thank you guys once again for holding the gates and make our run a lot nicer! I like that run...it's quite cool! In fact we had some good runs besides all the gloop! I think the bike needs a second clean today again!?

I was going out for a ride today but my legs say different.

After buying the workstand, it definetely makes you want to service and maintain the bike a lot better...I'll also be taking the pads out and giving them a good clean. My chain has that connector link, but I've tried to take the chain out that way and it was not easy!? Any ideas? Was I a bit naive (aka stupid) to think I could do it by hand?

Yeah, I've got that tool in my tool roll.
Did I ever tell anyone that my Osprey has a tool roll?

Was an entire bike, you only saw the wheel, think the kitchen sink blocked your vision got his bag from hogwarts
