It’s time for a Koga tune-up before I take my lady to West Africa. The bottom bracket is done after 26.000 km since the last replacement in Melbourne, January 2008. I ride down to the bike shop My Bicyclette, on St. Patrick’s Street on the Lachine Canal a little west of the city center, where Alex, a bike mechanic, immediately starts inspecting the bike.

Apart from the bottom bracket, I decide to get a new rear wheel too, since the spokes are all kind of loose and the rim wall might crack any time soon. Better safe than sorry. Burkina Faso might not be the right timing for a cracked rear wheel, and these guys really seem to know what they are doing.

I leave my honey at the operation table and am promised she’ll be all fine by tomorrow late afternoon.
Trust is a sacred thing.
