I don't have a local bike shop so I do my own maintenance and repairs. I have made mistakes and suffered the consequences. Of late my "Pre-Flight Check List" is getting unreasonably long...
I'm pretty new to the scene so I am learning as I go. I suppose it's not a bad idea to double check the work done. Having said that, from this point forward I'll be doing as much maintenance as I can on my own and double checking that.
