Saw a great bike mechanic today.

Wheels of Happiness

One of our kapadyak had a fd derrailleur that jammed in popular biking spot.   A bystander referred us to a bike shop and we saw about a hundred meters away from where the bike RD jammed.  The problem escaped the attention who simply kept oiling the chain.  The problem also escaped me;  I simply tightened the cable which solved the problem for a while

The mechanic, son of Doods, who hails from Negros Oriental saw that the FD angle was twisted (did the bike crash?  Yes).   In a matter of 5 minutes the problem was solved.  

And then the rear wheelset of another one whose  rear wheel need alignment took a little bit more time.  (They had a truing stand)  He got it right but not 100% because the tire was suspect.   

Great mechanic for a very young man.
