I was working for a large outdoors store chain, running the bicycle department. A guy brings in a strangely bent bike and proceeds to launch into the typical "just riding along" story. I listened patiently until he wound down, and then casually asked "How badly was the garage door damaged?" Before he could catch on he answered, "Not too bad."
Busted.
your a smart guy.
My wife did that the *FIRST DAY* we had our new roof rack.
The bike got a cyclecomputer knocked off, but the left side "support bar" of the rack got bent up.
Cheers!
