We have been waiting for the big hit to come but the weather has deterred our customers. I have been in the cycling industry for over 17 years and I am still trying to figure out why it is so weather related. By now I expect almost all american housholds to own a computer, cell phone, blackberry, dinkleberry whatever. There is no way in hell that you can't look up the weather. If it is supposed to rain on friday and be sunny on saturday why must you all come in on Saturday???? If we are in April are you not going to be alive until June?? The best time to come to the shop is on the weedays and when the weather is bad. Today it rained and it would have been a perfect time to come and pick our brains. You could have scored all the info and then purchased your crap from Nashbar via your Blue Toothless piece that is surgically inserted on the side of your head. Hey remember when Frankenstein came out and we made fun of him for his bolts. Guess what??
Anyway, I can feel the tension building and if it continues like this the mechanics are going to get mean. Expect short answers, rolling of the eyes and when you leave roaring laughter. As for the behave customers you will receive our greasy shirts off our backs. It is easy to buy us with a pound of Espresso or a 6-xer. Next time you go and get a on-the-spotter give the grease monkeys something.
We are like caged animals.
