Bike shop

[aeme]

Well, that was nice! I dragged my old bike out of the garage and brought it to work today. It really is probably in good shape, not having been ridden much, but the tires were flat and some stuff had fallen on it in the garage sometime over the past 6 or 7 years, so I wanted to get a tuneup and make sure everything was running well and safe to ride (no cracked rubber parts or dried out brakes). I took it to the Student bike shop on my lunch break and they said it would be $50 for a full tune, which I wanted. I just picked it up and they only charged my $18, less than the price of the "Quick Tune," even! I noticed on the receipt that the guy had scratched out "Full Tune" and wrote, "Just do the whole thing." Nice kids! Now it's all shiny and clean, too :)

Good deal. I think this is a good time of the year to do stuff like that. They were probably just glad to have something to do.
