Well it may have been rainy, but at least it was real humid!.

Nope.  NOT a misprint.
Sarcasm.
Well, as the rain wained some folks risked it and headed over.  Sold the DBS to a young gent in need of "getting to work" transport.  And Justin's sister came in and picked out two of the little princess bikes we have a plethora of!  And as ALWAYS thanks for the opportunity to help keep you all rolling!  But remember NEVER...no ALWAYS ride with brakes on your bike!  Are you listening kiddos?  I know it's the cool, hip thing to strip the brakes off and use your feet to stop (or shove the toe of their shoe between the top of the front wheel and the fork!  no....I'm not kidding.) but you don't always stop in time.
Sometimes, large, solid, rigid structures have a tendency to jump out in front of you at incredible rates of speed.
Such as the brick and concrete pillars outside the bike shop.
They're real tricky, and like to sneak up on boys on BMX's who aren't paying attention, thusly not being able to stop in time.
Yes...Kaleb is recovering from his minor injuries, nicely.
Oh, please....don't get me started.
On the lighter side of the news....
Seriously, he's OK.  Bruised finger, couple cuts and a nice but of brick rash on his face.  (trust me he gets off lightly with this stuff.  Anyone else would have been in traction)
Managed to get three new ones done today!  A real, real, real sweet looking vintage men's Free Spirit 3-speed re-furb/re-paint!  A nice little banger BMX, and the female in a pair of Murray Condors (the men's should be done Monday) Oh these things are SO precious!  They are spotted Condors!  Whoever came up with these paint schemes apparently was color blind and had free rein!  But I have to begrudgingly admit...I like these wild color schemes!  Very Retro!  (sad when the stuff you grew up with is now retro!
All right, Angela is asking me "How much longer" so i had better get a move on!
