Bob.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I’d like to introduce you to Bob.
Bob is my new (to me) 2008 Norco crr sL m6… and it may just be the highlight of my year – considering we are waist deep n Olympics that is a pretty big statement.
Bob weighs slightly over 15lbs, is made out of carbon, and I can assure you that he is going to help me fly up hills…. I’d say down hills as well but anyone who has ridden with me knows that I’m a chicken when it comes to going down hills.
I attempted to go for a ride with Bob this weekend – but I couldn’t get the pedals off to put on the old ones that fit my shoes… so I am patiently awaiting the arrival of Cornholio and his electric drill. As a stand-in I took my old bike out for a ride and ended up blowing out my back tire. Tonight, I decided to teach myself how to fix a flat tire… two tubes and three attempts later I am proud to say I figured it out (and have become an expert at getting my bike tire on and off).
