My new team mechanic

Since having shoulder surgery day, my road-build has become a father/son project. I'm just glad that between all the Lego construction, he actually found time to build my bike for me!

This could be a very expensive lesson. How soon before he want you to buy him a bike "just like daddy's"?

HaHa!! No, that's a bottle of Woodchuck from last week...just been too lazy to bring it upstairs.

And BTW, he has to stop using that new Supergoose he got for xmas before he gets a bike "just like dad's"!
