Okay, as a testament to the kind of ‘end of year’ time I’m having, I wrote a post about my recent stack, only to have it not save.  So lucky you, you get a paraphrased version -

• Building too many frames/bikes in too short a timeframe with too many distractions
• Warwick does not notice pedal has somehow worked itself loose on customers bike
• Warwick takes test ride on said bike, has altercation with chainring [see picture]
• Spends FOUR HOURS bleeding in the waiting room of the Royal Melbourne
• Customer’s bike somehow gets away unscathed, probably due to me taking time out between noticing something is going wrong, saying ‘wtf’ in slow mo, before hitting the ground and doing a very tricky ‘keep bike off ground at all costs’ tuck-and-roll.

Only a true professional can be that smart and that stupid all at the same time.

Happy New Year!
