Slime Skabs Patches
Here is some interesting bike tech. The Slime Skabs Tube Patch is a device where, you can probably guess, you put on the inner tube in your weal when it get’s punctured. The cool thing about these patches is that they do not require glue for adhesion. That’s because they come pre-glued already. So it is just a simple peel and stick job. Though the review is not that favorable the idea is solid. I can see some day when they work out the kinks with the product that they will replace the traditional sand glue, press, model we all use today.

Marin County, California Opens New Multi-Use Tunnel
In one of the simplest uses of old infrastructure to date Marin County, California opened a multi-use tunnel that was repurposed out of an old train tunnel. This 1.6 mile tunnel is a great example of the innovation and idealism we need here in Albany. Check out the video here.

The latest from the bike rescue
Carl worked on an old Ross 5 speed that had a reverse pull derailleur (which I think is also referred to as a rapid rise?) Mark worked on an old schwinn 10 speed that had never been ridden. The tread on the tire was brand new but the sidewall had disintegrated! Chris B. worked on a Specialized MT bike that required new brake cable and tuning. We had two people come in as customers.
The winter months are a great time to reinforce our new bike repair skills. If we work on a couple bikes night, we will have a room full of ride able bikes in no time!
Thanks to all,
Mary Lou
