Well it happened again Thursday morning. I popped another spoke in the back wheel. This time I called and asked the owner if he could have it done for me Friday if I brought in my wheel thursday after work. He said if I got it in at lunch he might be able to get it done by Thrusday night. At first I did not think I could take off work but my coworkers covered for me to run it down to him, guess I got grouchy last time I did not have a bike. He took my work number and told me he would call when done. So remembering what a jerk I can be I did not call and harrass them until about noon today (Friday). The person who answered the phone said they had not started on it yet. I should be riding home right now, but instead I am sitting here at work waiting for my wife. Still no wheel. Think I have spent my last dollar in that shop.
