Recovery and the Michelin Card

Didn’t ride today because of a few reasons. I do a race run at the local ski mountain on Wednesdays and it is rather difficult to commute on a bike while having a snowboard on your back. So I drove instead. When I got home, I started messing with getting a printer of mine wireless in the living room, so I didn’t ride the bike at night either. chalk this one up to a night of recovery.

I called Cyclops to get a warranty for my trainer, and luckily, they have a life time warranty. When talking about returning it, the gent on the line told me to send back mine, and they will replace it. He said it would take a little while because of them being backed up a little being this is trainer season, probably a week or 2. I told him my address and that I worked for Michelin his tune changed a little bit. He told me to forget sending mine back right now, and wait until I got one from them. He would send one today and over night it, so I wouldn’t be without my trainer for long. Like that ain’t the way its supposed to happen. Shouldn’t they be nice like that to everyone else? Well, I consider myself lucky, and he will have himself some nice tires on their way to him tomorrow. Scratch my back, and I will scratch yours. Thank you again Michelin Card.  Now if I could just work that with Jeep to get me a new Wrangler.
