Well today I woke in a bit of a fright as I heard the garbos in the street and remembered that the bin hadn’t been put out last night!!! Panic … on with trousers and out the door to run the bins down the street. Thankfully it isn’t a long street and they were taking there time. Note to self … it is cold at 6am without a shirt or socks on.
The day did however improve. I checked the email and was advised that my bike would be arriving today. And guess what .. it did 
so all excited I set to unpacking the box that it came in. Pulling out the clothes and the like that I ordered and then finally looking at the bike and pulling it out of the box. Now, it looked a little bit strange when it was in the box but didn’t think too much of it at the time – excitement and all that.
As I pulled it out it hit me as to why it was so strange … it was small!!!!! (see picture) Unfortunately for me they had packed the wrong bike in the box !!! or had they just run out of mine and thought anyone will do! Not only was it too small but also had three chainrings. Now I know sometimes I need all the help I can get but gee, that is just not nice to suggest I need a triple chainring. So after checking out the size of all the clothes and the helmet – a few things were a bit short – I called the bike shop and discussed the issue with them.
They are looking in to it to see if they can locate ‘my’ bike as they don’t have anymore of the one that I wanted. It would have been nice to have gone out on the bike today as some sunshine did come around too … bugger ….
Let us see what they come back with ….
