bike was my cheapo commuter, rear wheel is pretty mangled but everything else is ok. Cracked helmet and scuffed sunnies so will get those replace by her insurance. Bike ill need to get checked out by their approved repairer which ive actually been to as theyve worked on the very same bike.
SJ1: insurance approved payout for lid and sunnies, still need to get bike assessed.
SJ2: shoulder progressing nicely i think, mobility and strength slowly coming back
NJS: still not riding yet

SJ: How good is it when you find a really really great LBS? International Cycles (ADL) is awesome. Proper good mechanic. Doesnt just scoff and suggest you drop $6k on a new bike instead of the dumb retrofitting hack plan you’re trying to do. Also features as good a retro collection as you’ll find in any Aus lbs.

Raft of SJs: introducing my two teenage girls to Melbourne city, making moodiness disappear by taking them to spend money on the Brunswick main drag, having a beer with Pinz, trams, good Thai food.

It was. I think. Also met the youngest Kent, cuddled a big floof, and fondled French crabon.
