No, it’s not that roadies will never trust a chunky bike shop owner. Or even perhaps that growing the remaining bit of your rapidly disappearing hair into a weird quiff/worlds thinnest mohawk is a good idea.
Nope, the hints are there. Little clues that changes are coming. Too early for those who understand these things but joyous for the pedalers out there. Crocus poking through, snowdrops drooping proudly, daffodils daring the season and the mud has changed from sloppy rear wheel churn to tacky trail glue.
Spring is coming, go see the change and enjoy it.
