- Bike shop trick, huh ? Just an excuse to avoid the embarassment of
- having you drop them as you tear back to work ! Same thing happened
- to my girlfriend in Riva di Garda when she had the embarassing
- situation of having to drop her no.1. cycling hero, Ciapucci (Carrera)
- as she was late for work. Obligingly he stopped at a lakeside cafe for
- an espresso. Now that's professionalism.
