Every month or so I stop by my LBS with a six of something and we chat. They are a pretty high-speed/low drag shop, one guy races Masters on the National level, the other runs centuries as weekend therapy. Our customer base really doesn't cross, but we can ***** about customers nonetheless. While we're addressing a local ale I notice an old C'dale on the stand. It's grimey, about 20 years old. In casual conversion I ask what it needs. I'm told it needs to go to the dump, it's brifters are gummed up. I ask if they're serious, and they are. I offer to save them the trip, I'll throw it in the back of the truck.
Then they say "While your at it you can take that old Trek leaning up against the dumpster".
I love these guys.....
