So, like, can you help me pump up my tyres, baby?

that article is about the stupidest thing i've ever read. note to self; never ever go to that bike shop if in new york city.

What about the guys that are just nice people stopping to see if you need to borrow any tools or something? I'd never be so rude as to walk up to someone
(male or female) and take a spanner out of their hand!

okay i am a total shit mechanic, and there's a lot of stuff i am bad at/can't do that people on here have helped me with and i am glad to ask for help when i need it and i definitely appreciate it - but i have had a spanner, or pump, or whatever, literally taken out my hand a couple times when it was a job that i could do and that is really, really frustrating! cause how else am i ever gonna learn?

that said, i think tomorrow i'll go down to clerkenwell road around 5 o'clock and let the air outta my tires if any of you ladies out there wanna join me? i think i'll bring a bowl of grapes too.
