A new bike for £96!

- edinburgh

Twice a year I take my bike to the service, because I found this shop that I quite like, and they are doing a much better job much more quickly than I could.

Inspired and encouraged by my friend Kat who for a while had a 90 minute commute each way by bike (in Britain!) I cycle on average a hundred kilometres per week, mainly through my own commute, so my bike parts wear quickly.

At my last service, more parts of my bike were replaced than remained and I ended up with a new bike that was still dirty enough to not attract thieves, but it’s fast and the brakes brake beautifully!

Your friend Kat moved back to Germany and has now a commute of 10min only each way. And guess what she is getting fat. At the moment she is watching “A walk in the woods”. She thinks there are some similarities. And weirdly enough she would like to take “A walk in the woods”. - Kat

Hmm, maybe you could run to work? A walk in the woods is about the two old dudes doing the Appalachian Way? Can’t think of any similarities! - Maike
