Pat, I'm gonna be relying on you to keep me abreast of all the rules.
Now ... where did I put those waxing strips?

Did someone mention the rules?

(useful if you've never been a teenage girl. Very similar to the ones they impose on each other)

I think one bike gets the requisite amount of attention it deseves. You get 2 or more, and one of them is getting short shrift.

Nice. I've made one essential change and it's traditional to tell you that the chain's slack.

I think black would look nicer than the grey that Crackle installed for you...

Ha, very, very funny!

It was meant to be black. Grey is how the white ends up unless you carry a supply of baby wipes.

Don't buy it yet, wait until the tape is grey: it's more fun unwrapping it comparing the pristine and grey tape.

More seriously, after a few weeks, you'll know better if you want thicker tape, or similar to what you have. Plus blue might be a nice colour!
