介紹:自行車保養(yǎng)秘方[1]

　　Todd: OK so, here we go, now Terry you were saying that you went from Vancouver to San Diego. How many days did that take?

　　Terry: Um, the total trip took 42 days but that included one day on the bus up and then one day on the bus back so 40 days on the road, of which 36 days were riding days and 4 days off.

　　Todd: That is so cool. So first you have your bike in your hometown and you put your bike on the bus and you took the bus to Vancouver?

　　Terry: Right. Yeah, you have to put your bike in a bicycle box as its know. It requires a little disassembling of the bicycle but, its not difficult.

　　Todd: As, so you take the bike apart and put it in a box and then put it,

　　Terry: Yeah for sure it on a bus or an airplane, theyre both the same, you have to put it in a bike box.

　　Todd: So are you really good at bicycle maintenance?

　　Terry: Ah, no. I would say that that is one of my short comings. I certainly do some bicycle maintenance. Whenever youre on a long bicycle trip, you by design, you have to take care of your bike and then thats your transportation. Youre carrying everything you have with you so you need to take care of your bicycle. YOu can stop in bicycle shops along the way and have then do any major repairs, but on a day to day basis you need to maintain your bicycle.

　　Todd: OK, so when you are taking a trip, what tools do you need to take with you? To take care of your bicycle?

　　Terry: Oh, just some basic Alan wrenches and screwdrivers and, oh and obviously, a repair kit for patching a tube, or some extra inter tubes. I usually just take along extra inter tubes, and you need tools to take your wheel, your tire off, and things like that.

　　Todd: Wow, so you just take the tubes with you, huh? How many inter tubes do you take?

　　Terry: Oh, I usually take two or three extras. Im, anymore, Im not real keen on patching flats. I usually just take the tube ou ut and throw it away and put in a new one.

　　Todd: So on your last bike trip, did you have any problems with your bike? Did it break down at all?

　　Terry: No, no, no. No real problems.

　　Todd: Oh, cool. Alright, thanks Terry.
