Thanks for the good words. I have in the past worked with the group that
refurbishes old bikes and recycles them. Until now, I have been a kids'
bike specialist. I can work on those old friction brakes pretty well! Now,
though, I feel like I can step up to work on the adult bikes, too. This
way, I can learn by doing without worrying about accumulating more bikes!
Just doing something from start to finish and seeing the results is
rewarding. Now, I know why so many people like working in construction....
