Trod Bogs Sadly – Oddstray's Blog

I would imagine that anyone reading this blog would think that I’m a little pissy. Well, hey, great things do happen and one of them happened today.

Background: about 5 years ago I bought a bicycle from Bicycle Warehouse.

Heh, I hadn’t really ridden the thing very much, but I started, a couple of days ago, to use it to get some exercise around Miramar Lake every day. Annoyingly, there was a chainy, grinding noise coming from maybe the front or rear gearsets. Poor me, I try to fix it and I have no idea what I’m doing. Complete fail.

Er hem, so I call Bicycle Warehouse in Kearney Mesa, and they say “Come on in!” And darn it, they fix the problem in seconds (I’m sure they are laughing at me behind their hands) but nonetheless, they charge me nothing. And they say that would be true of anyone who walks in off the street with a simple bicycle problem to solve.

That’s just un-American.

I like it. 🙂
