Hello ladies and gentlemen of these prestigious community here on hive it's always a pleasure to share, learn RE-LEARN and do more with my bike it's feels great to be among those who share these feeling, excitment and fun of cycling, yah!... that's exactly how I felt today when I had to drop by the bikers shop today after jewel develop all of a sudden flat tire yesterday while returning from work, I was #cycling when I observed my front wheel was flat, almost felt as if I was riding on bare wheel, so I had to stop and check it out, then I knew with the state it was if I should ride anymore further I might damage the tube so I stop and walked with my bike home
Early this morning I had to rush and take it for maintenance check, my repair man was surprised at how I had to ride to shop on only the back wheel walking, cause the front wheel was totally not rideable the tube and tire were totally disengage, so he quickly losen it and run a check on the tube to find out where it punctured
After like a minute he found the spot and patched it, he suggested I buy a new tube but no, I said I just bought this, the last time I came for a maintenance, he found it, and showed me that a very tiny pin had punctured the tire and the tube as well, but no worries it can be fixed..
About that feeling I spoke about earlier, I met this great biker, from the look of things I think he's on a cross-state ride cause he was fully equipped and I know it definitely wasn't for a short ride
He had to use this to go some where since his bike was still under repair, I kinda like his bike tho, one solid pencil tire high ROADMASTER bicycle just the way I would like it, I'm like you just can't get enough of these amazing wheel on steel 😂
I didn't really care much to have a word with him, he was rather in a haste and needed his bike to be fixed as soon as possible, to hit the road again... Yah about his safety stuff I had to get the helmet altho I don't go long distance just inbetween work and home but sometimes the city roads can be so busy with trucks and vehicles especially the passenger buses and mini buses and tricycle riders so it's better I get one now, it wasn't that expensive as I had imagined, I observed this one so light I guess it was made from light materials
Then I spotted this cassette with a seven speed set, meanwhile Jewel's had just six, these cyclist I met, when he's was removed I was surprised to see how many it had About 12 or 13 speed set, I was like wow, I never knew they could be this much....
In less than 30minutes Jewel's tony wheel was fixed and it's time we head to the office, so guys thanks for your time and check-in out my blog post, I do appreciate slot.
