Reminds me of that joke

Child to his biologist dad:
"Dad what's an electron?"

Dad: "Why don't you ask your mom, she's the physicist, electrons are her wheelworks."

Child: "But I don't want to know *that* much about it."

AAA really will come pick up your bike, they aren’t lying.
The driver, when we arrived at Belmont Wheelworks, asked if he could take a picture, saying “It’s my first bike!”

"Look guys, just leave it alone. Don't give him any more attention."
"That's easy for you to say, dude."
"Aye, you aren't one of the multitudes of groups he's spewing his stupid shit about."

"Something in this immensity turns and meshes its gears with a regularity so precise as to be disquieting; and exactly for whom—or against whom—this mechanism deploys its flaming wheelworks, we do not know."

"It's Joel."

"It's Joel's flaming wheelworks."

"Yeah Joel did it."

Update: bike was still there, rode it directly to the lovely people at Ace Wheelworks, who sold me a new u-lock and put air in my tires, home now.
WELP my old Kryptonite lock finally failed, forcing me to rely on only a cable lock and the Davis Sq. T bike cage to protect my bike, 🤞🤞🤞 it’s still there when I’m done with my dentist appointment

@gravelinfluencer.bsky.social is there a cycling clothing store anywhere in the metro area? Bikes Not Bombs and Wheelworks both have very basic kits.

Well I tried a 58 EVO and a 58 Crux at Wheelworks, and one think I know for sure is that I do not have the legs for that standover height. That means a 56 with a long stem and spacers yuk lol.
If you ever want to test ride mine to see how ya like it let me know

Many years ago, I was in the used section of Wheelworks, and they had this very shiny road bike with a note that said something about not being allowed to say who owned it before, but it was a US Senator.

3/x I do prefer a DT Swiss-style drive, Erase claim to have improved on it by maching one side of the ratchet into the one-piece titanium driver, meaning there’s only one spring and one clutch as moving parts. Also theirs are larger in diameter. youtu.be/0wUR15LJUxg?...
Erase hubs deep dive

It’s what a fair number of us locals were thinking as we cheered for Ghana.

We bathe in the reminders.

For example, this here, on the sidewalk outside Wheelworks bikeshop in Somerville, is an actual gravestone marking where a couple British lads lost a “sharp fight”.

I bought a bike at ace wheelworks in Somerville, and rode the first 12 of 14 miles home on bike paths, protected bike lanes and a few painted but separate bike lanes.

The last 2 miles home, the moment the southwest corridor ends at Forest Hills, the best I get is a tiny painted bicycle on the road.

This is the bike we found in a ditch now fully restored thanks to Robinson Wheelworks.

Thanks to Ed, Imir, Randall, and Bruce of Ace Wheelworks in Somerville MA, I'll be without my bike until Monday afternoon.

I biked around Cambridge and Somerville in my 20’s, .. 20 years ago

Now I live in Hyde Park.

I bought an ebike from ace wheelworks in Somerville.

Biked home - 14 miles. The first 12 were entirely bike path, protected and separated bike lanes.

The last 2….closest to my house.

working ones? :p There's a broken one in Porter Square, which is my experience with basically all the public bike repair infrastructure. Wheelworks typically has a pump outside when they're open, I think, but I don't know whether any working bike repair stations exist in Somerville.
