Hi to all.
Sitting at home tonight feeling a little worse for wear ( got the dreaded lurgy ) ,the front door opens and my ex brother in law comes in with a hybrid Boardman framed bike. The last thing ,I was expecting him to say was it's a present ,but that's exactly what he said. He,s been spending the evenings building the bike up for me as a surprise. He's fitted it with Sora group set , disc brakes and other high quality parts. Ten years back his daughter was born at 26 weeks and it was "touch and and go" as to whether she would make it. At the time I did what anybody would do and helped in any way I could ,to get them through this difficult time but he has always been internally greatful as well as his good wife.
2016 was not a great year for me as my wife ran off with another fella but my brother in-law has been a piller of strength for me . My current road bike is an imaculate 1983 Peugeot Eqiupe and I don't like using it much in the bad weather and ruining its new look so he's given me this BoardMan bike to use in the winter months. So tonight I'm sitting here feeling quite shocked and humbled by his generosity. It certainly puts my faith back in the human race again knowing there are still some good people out there :-)
