    Tough job ??? Fuck me .. I was in your shop two weeks ago - no-one even tried to sell me a bike - let alone a root or even a cup of coffee ... !!!! Y'all sat around nattering ....

    (Well, except for the mechanic who helped me adjust my loose chain ... )

    Yeah, I know the feeling.

    Apparently the latest KiwiRider has an article on Katanas and they never paid me a visit.

    Fuck 'em.

    You actually wanted the coffee. They were probably too stunned by the concept to think about selling.

    Naa .. it was a Saturday. I got to Wellington with a very rattly chain - I couldn't loosen the wheel nut with the tools on the bike so I got a BIG wrench from one of your mechanics ... did the job ...

    No, not seriously - I did stop there a while ago after a long ride and they offered me coffee - I made the mistake of accepting ... this time I wasn't even offered one ..
