Are any of our illustrious forumites in the vicinity of Hathersage road in Manchester (or know someone who is)? My daughter is in need of some mechanical assistance (a couple of minutes with a spanner to straighten her back wheel, I think) and I am a couple of hundred miles away.
 
Hi,

I am actually in the vicinity, but don't have any mechanical know-how or a spanner! There is a bike shop ~ 5 mins walk away though. Bicycle Garage on Denmark Road. They'll be able to help her out!

Tell her to walk the bike 1 km south to Dickenson Road and find the Bicycle Doctor shop near the junction with Oxford Road. While she's waiting for them to fix it she can stroll back up Oxford Road and enjoy a shawarma at Jaffa on the junction of Park Crescent.

If she still hasn't fixed it by tomorrow I'll get GtiJunior to have a look at it but today he's out of town.

Is the Bicycle Doctor still going? Used to buy bits and bobs there many years ago.

Thanks for the offer. She's working till quite late at the moment so I'll get back to you if your junior is needed.

I'm afraid not, I'm working in Chester all day.

I presume the town, and not some chap named Chester?

Hullo. GTIJ here. Don't have any tools but I can certainly try and diagnose. I'll likely be in Rusholme after 6:30, and happy to give her a call.
