Turnin' Wrenches
When I bought my bike last year, I got a used one for $60. That's not bad for a working hybrid bike. It's a Nishiki Manitoba, so not a terrible brand, though far from great. It wasn't in great condition, but it was good enough, and it's been very useful to me, as I've ridden my bike a fair amount of times in the past year. One part that wasn't in great shape was the pedals. Both pedals were broken, though they were still usable. I finally got around to ordering new pedals, and they recently arrived. I also ordered a water bottle and water bottle cage, since they bike didn't come with that. I installed the water bottle cage, but when it was time to do the pedals, I invited Joshua out to help me. I taught him about wrenches and what they do and how they work, and I let him make a few turns with it as we removed the old pedal. As always, he was very excited to help me out with a project and to get to use the wrench by himself.
