When you get struck with a good thought.

by tim

I love it when you have a problem or need to come up with an idea and out of no where (poof) an idea comes to mind. Last week my mind lightly grazed the thought that I would need help this summer in the shop. With all the UWP boyz leaving for summer, I would be left short of a hand or two. Then out of the blue (or maybe it was green or yellow) that Joel Austin came to mind.  Joel is a friend I know, have ridden a 100 miles with him, but I have not spent lots of time with him. His name came into my head on Sunday (for no reason why), and the idea to ask him to work for me came to me.

Joel knows bikes,  he rides, he commutes, he has raced and toured.  All I had to do was track him down and ask him. A few phone calls later and Joel is coming in, And he did come in on Tuesday to visit. We chatted and we have decided to give each other a chance. Joel will be in today to try and absorb all I throw at him.  Is always hard to train when the place is on fire, but I have a good feeling about Joel coming in. Just as I did with Katie, Molly, Noah and all the others I have had a good feeling about.  I have always been blessed with great freinds that work with me, thanks to all of you. I just love my Momentum Family

  1. The blog is a great new addition to your shop Timothy! The Bike Shop has always been “the place to be” in Platteville, and the new look will only improve that. And the blog is so fun to read and keep up on. Thanks for taking the time to fill us in on your life a bit! What fun!

    Good luck!

  2. Hey Timmy!
