Pete's Log: the bike story continues

Entry #487, (Life in General)
(posted when I was 22 years old.)

blah blah blah, flat tires... so today we stopped by proform. i picked up a new tire, a new inner tube, a set of tire levers, and a set of hex wrenches. the last two items were impulse buys of sorts. so i replace my tire and put the new inner tube in. i'm actually ashamed. having no direct comparison until now, i hadn't realized how bad my treads were. but comparing them to the new tire, they're awful. so i think i'm actually gonna replace my front tire too... just because it's the right thing to do. i also realized, when i used my new set of tire levers, what a fool i'd been for not buying some sooner. i used to have a set, and man, they're awesome. they work so much better than the alternatives. so tonite i'm biking to campus for the whole senior bar experience, so we'll see how that goes. i've got a few hours so maybe i'll do some adjusting to various parts of my bike... since i've now got a set of hex wrenches... woohoo!! i think i may need to actually mount my bike lock to my frame so that the pouch i have under the seat can be used to hold tools and such, like it used to before i lost all my old tools... i shall restore this bike to its former glory... yes, i shall.
