My nephew did not have a tinkering father about. It was disappointing
when I went on a week long bicycle tour with him that he knew little
about basic bicycle tuning. He has learned a bit more in the past few
years as he has gotten even more in to bicycling. It is cool that he
is riding and racing. I like to think that his Uncle Jim that took
him off in the woods 12 years ago mountain bike riding and brought him
out looking like a beat dog had some influence on him. Come to think
of it he is not a big fan of mountain bike riding.


One of the most talented orthopedic surgeons in my area is an avid
mountain biking enthusiast, and nearly a fearless technical terrain
rider. He is also the worlds WORST bicycle mechanic.

But, boy, can he fix people! G
