Of course there was also a flat tire somewhere in the middle of it, as it always is ...
The worst hit was my mountain bike, thanks to the winter salt on all roads. I think I was able to save the chain and remove it halfway from rust. However, the gears don't work again, I could ... Maybe I should do a “mechanics course” so that I can do things like that on my own and don't have to run to the bike shop every time.
The owner there raises his eyebrow anyway every time I walk in with the words "It's just a small thing, you just have to tighten the screw here or something ..."
To make matters worse, triathletes always have to go fast and they basically don't have time to leave the bike there for a few days for repairs. How should you train him in the meantime?
So tomorrow I'll show up again shortly before the store closes at 7pm. Experience has shown that this time is the least busy and the chance of an immediate repair is then highest! 😉
... and then the mail goes off next week !!!
