Over the years, I.ve learned to do everything in terms of mechanics and repair, i even learned how to TIG weld at the community college indulging a frame building fantasy.
that being said, i do not do everything. Wheelbuilding, for example, is something I've not found to be economical in terms of price and time to do. All of my efforts to date have proven I am a poor wheelbuilder also!
So on the continuum, I'm in the moment of needing to ride more, and remembering and reemploying my more arcane and personal knowledge acquired at other points of time in my cycling life.
