Swindon - Help Offered - Next two weeks

[Dex]

Hi Folks,

I'm on leave for the next couple of weeks (waiting to find out if I'm being made redundant) so have a bit of spare time on my hands.

Rather than sit around in my pants all day, watching poor quality daytime TV I thought it might be a bit better to do something productive.

I've got a little workshop setup in my garage in Swindon (Windsor Gate- Near Priory Vale, Opposite big Asda Walmart)


So what I'm saying is... If you are having niggles with your bike, or you want to do a bit of work on it (servicing brakes, fitting pads, oil change, tracking down problems, all sorts really) then give me a shout. To be honest I'm looking for something to take my mind off the redundancy thing, since there's nothing I can do about it until Sep 1st when I hear the results.


If there's anyone who is at all new to biking and just wants to go through "daily checks and routine jobs" like adjusting chain and the like then I'm more than happy to do that too.

Dex - Loose Women & Jeremy Kyle are the way forwards! ;D

Come to think of it, most of the women on JK are Loose Women!

awsome offer m8 8-)

I'm desperately hoping I don't end up watching Jeremy Kyle, or you'll find me swinging in the garage...


I guess I should also say I can pack a lot of my tools onto the bike and head out and about if need be (especially if someone has a non-runner or any other problems that stop them bringing the bike to me for us to tinker with)


If anyone needs a bit of reassurance that I've got a reasonable idea what I'm doing then Paleblue is probably the guy to talk to - as I did rather a lot of work on his bike (when it was my bike) and it's not all fallen apart just yet. I did also spend a happy weekend fault finding on his wife's bandit when it was causing issues.

[Dex]

I'd hope so - otherwise I'll just get bored and cause trouble :-[
