Oh, you can… I love this strip, I’ve been in that position so many times! In a few seconds this has become one of my favourite strips of the entire series. I reckon most bike mechanics can sympathise with Yehuda, and I’ve seen a few people whose love for cycling has been killed by working in the bike industry. It’s so important to enjoy the ride home.
Sure you can. Just work in a bike shop and have a day that is nothing but difficult repairs and even more difficult customers. And yeah, I was one of those people who stopped riding for years, a lot due to too many days like the above.
If you had said “Hozan,” maybe. But Park? Some are great, some really suck. I’m sure I’m in the minority in hating the TS-2.2. The pedal wrenches are fine, though, and in a pinch can help out in a difficult situation.
Hello cycle, my old friend
I’ve come to ride with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
That’s not a hammer; that looks like a Park cone wrench or pedal wrench. Probably the cone wrench because it doesn’t look long enough for a pedal wrench.
But you’re right — a good mechanic takes care of his tools and puts them back when he’s done with them; otherwise he’s going to waste a lot of time looking for something the next time he needs it.
You can never see too many bikes…
Obviously, you are not a commuting driver!

Keep riding, Yehuda.

That’s no way to treat a Park tool.

ONE MORE BIKE = ONE LESS CAR
Yeah, yeah… we know…
The cobbler’s children have no shoes!

Awesome, good one.
Yehuda should be careful where he throws that hammer over his shoulder.
