[#3108892]

Gave the road bike a bit of a clean down today.

Been having some shoddy shifting of late and during the wash saw that the problem was a missing bolt holding the mech hanger on . It was loose and moving.

Soze I make a special effort to pack the kids in the car and trek to my lbs for a mech hanger bolt.

THe LaZy friking owner of the shop was sat on his SHOrt arse watching the cycling on his plasma and couldnt even stand up the useless shister to serve me. He didn't know that I wasn't about to drop a few k on some bling wheels.

I asked for a bolt and he frigging just sat there on his short arse and says his mechanic is in tomorrow come back then! Not the slightest bit of effort to look in his tool box which was on full display.. What a ****.

Well shortie...I will not be back tomorrow. In fact I never will. What a ****. .

So Le Peleton cycles in winchmore hill Sorry I disturbed you from your tv but you're a ****...or have I already said that.?

MM

Yeah you did, and personally, I'm quite glad he treated you with the contempt you clearly deserve. ๐Ÿ˜†

You've obviously got altitude sickness. Must be that thin air up there making you feel faint and dizzy, and affecting your judgement...

On another note, went into my LBS today that is mainly road orientated and got two lock nuts for my ancient DT Swiss hub for nought. I only needed one, but the bloke dug in his spares bin and got two matching new nuts
Also old me that he could order anything I needed via Madison etc.
And he was about average height as well, bonus.

He's not short. He's far away.

Actually, amongst STWers there is a correlation between loveliness and height. The smaller folk are, the lovelier.

EG:

Mamadirt; tiny, yet lovely. SueW, Emsz, Kof9, CG, Aleigh; all small, and lovely. ๐Ÿ™‚

Cynic al, TJ, Bullheart, Junky, Binners- all tall, and horrible. ๐Ÿ™

Scientifically proven.

[i]Did I S aY he was SHoRT[/i]

No, you said [i]sat on his SHOrt arse[/i]
Which we assume you MEAN, he was short.
Like me. I have no sympathy, so **** off you LANKY tw*t, & I hope you bang your head on something you forgot to duck for.

PS, I've got a bucket full of bolts, to suit most applications, but because your'e obviously shortist, you can't have any. ๐Ÿ˜†

medium sized = Whateverrr...

note: Elfin doesn't put himself in that bracket of loveliness. That's an aberration to the statistical mean. can someone do a graph? I love a good graph!

He didn't know that I wasn't about to drop a few k on some bling wheels

Yes he did, with a single glance!

And he was watching cycling. You can't expect him to attend to your paltry needs when there's an important race to watch. ๐Ÿ™„

Now go back and apologise.
