Bike Repair

My bike had been making a strange "clicking" sound on the downstroke so I took it to Rick Miller.  Rick used to own A Gear Higher, a bike shop in Polaris, but closed it last year. Now Rick operates a repair service from his van and will drive to your location or you can take the bike to his home shop in Utica.  Among Rick's more prominent and frequent customers are Jon the Dentist and Ginger so what better recommendation can there be?  My bike has a serious problem and the frame needs replaced!!!!  Fortunately, Trek is covering it under warranty and Rick says the defect was affecting my performance by at least 50% because of pedaling resistence that required Herculean effort to turn the crank (I just knew my recent problems were mechanical). If you want a bike repair house call you can reach Rick at 614-266-8822 or at [email protected].

I am betting your bike committed suicide due to your inability to ride it as fast as it is meant to be ridden.

You are so slow and weak that your bike committed suicide out of embarrassment and boredom.

Mr. Trek,

That is a very, mean spirited thing to say, despite its accuracy. Just because you have lasting mental illness left over from your mom's revelation that you were a Pork Chop Baby (your mom had to tie porkchops around your neck to get the family dog to play with you) is no excuse for attacking me. You should be ashamed.

Jamie has one you can use, however it probably would end up in the same shape for it would not be use to going that slow.....

Hey guys. Leave Mark alone. If it were not for his reports, I might actually be productive at work and that would be boring

Mark,
Nice info but more inportent is progres you be making on getting me a rode bike. I've been doing bike path repeats on the iron maiden bike and wow, I luv the sound of them nobbly tires when I get the speed up too 15mph. Man I luv that buzzing sound. If you can get me a rode bike I may stick baseball cards along the wheels so I can duplocate that buzz sound! Hey, Hey. I supose Cindy been riding a bunch since she got her a government job. Thats ok, I will overcome.
