I thought your advice would be to make sure all the kiddies have crash bobbins,frame sliders etc for when retardism sets in.
Hope it doesnt cost you too much or long to source bits to get the bike back to its former glory! My mistakes tend to start when I open my eyes in the morning and go from there!
Firstly sorry to hear about your bad luck! Secondly thank feck I have finally passed my bad luck onto someone else!
First = Let me say how sorry I am to hear your tale of woe. Second = Thanks matey, that made me chuckle for the first time in a few days, reminding me that I do still have a sense of humour. All be it, a warped one.
I am just disappointed that Kiwi thought I had rear ended someone as his first thought........ No concern that I might have been fighting my way through mud and silt laden streams in the wilds of Kent at the dead of night and was clobbered by an falling oak tree...no...just 'oh mate, did you rear end someone?' thanks biking buddy
To be honest... I didn't stoop so low as to think you'd managed to fall off on your driveway... Although a bloke I worked with a couple of years ago did the same thing to his brand new bike. I nearly pissed myself laughing at that too H
