How far can I go?
My gravel bike was in for a service this week and I collected it today. Now, my gravel bike has a hard life- it gets ridden in all weathers, serves as my winter commuter, does a bit of bikepacking, toddler towing, gravel/mud/singletrack/fields/should probably be on a hardtail riding. It's no secret it's been a bit wet this year, and I've ridden through my fair share of floods in the past few months. I always do a bit of routine maintenance- new chain when needed, bottom bracket replacement, brake pads, cassettes, etc, so while my gravel bike has a hard life, it's not completely neglected. So anyway, I picked up my bike today, and besides some new bearings in the bottom bracket (it was only a few months old, but well, floods), and a sealant top up in my rear tyre, everything else was just a bit of adjustment. So nothing major. But what my mechanic said to me on collection still has me cracking up-
His exact words to me were "You definitely have not been blowing kisses at this bike".
So what words of wisdom have your mechanics said to you?
