Title: Bike Maintenance Day
Post by: Williamson on July 25, 2020, 01:59:32 PM
Not much going on here in St Helena, time to do some bike maintenance, so cleaned-up these, completed safety check, getting 'em ready for a coupla of the grandkids.

With two 2yo boys who have already shown some skills on their toy push-a-long bikes, I think these will get some good use.

And who could resist thisone at the local Honda dealer?  Well I couldn't.

Liddle bit of surface rust is okay, the link pins move freely enough, no need to apply unecessary lube for little fingers, or for any mums to complain about. 

If daughter-in-law complained - it'd be like water-of-duck's-back; daughter complaints, well let's just say that her mother taught her too well.  Mmmm ... don't think Helen reads the Forum.

Did someone who doesn't ride a Honda make a comment?
