I prefer to work on my bike rather than take it to the LBS. I tell myself that I'm too impatient to wait for the shop to do it. And yet, for months I've had new cables, BB, brake pads, bar tape, etc., sitting in a bin on my workbench, waiting for me to get around to the mid-winter tear-down/rebuild.
