Mr. Delaney Saves The Day
A fine bike ride to the Ledges with the Vardos on Sunday was into mile 5 when the chain broke on the the Delaney Tandem. Not to fear - Mr. Delaney whipped out some funky Alien multifunction bike tool thingy that HAD A CHAIN TOOL as part of its compact arsenal. Singlehandedly, Mr. D. popped the chain rivet, took out a link, put the whole shebazz back together and rescued the 27 mile ride from certain disaster. Three lessons learned: Buy one of these fine bike tool units from our friends at Skunk River Cycles. Carry a chain masterlink. Do not look at Mr. Delaney when he is changing into his bike shorts in front of God AND THE REST OF THE CITIZENS OF BOONE IOWA FOR CRYING OUT LOUD MR DELANEY HAVE YOU NO SHAME AND NO WE ARE NOT INTERESTED IN YOUR "SECRET" TRAMP STAMP AND WOULD SOMEBODY PLEASE GET THAT MAN A TOWEL
