Bike problems

The district leader gets a lot of phone calls about problems and questions. . . what the junk! haha. but a new elder didn't have a bike so i let him borrow mine. . . turns out he is a little heavier and my bake tire was so out of true it was hitting the side of the frame when i got it back. and i'm pretty sure he put a lot of pressure on the peddles when he was shifting cause the chain was stretched out farther then the bike mechanic had ever seen. . . it was pretty intense. . . more intense then camping!!! ooohhh bet you missed that one! haha. but anyways. so i had to replace the chain and the front and back tires, true both of them and i might have to completely replace the back crank. . . and those alone are about 100 bones. . . but i might not so well keep it on the bright side. plus i think in the doctrine and covenants it talks about how the harder you work the better your back crank will be. . .yeah must be in there. but other then that it have been an awesome week. working hard. tracting. trying to find people to teach. . . the lord will bless us. i know he will. a little patience is all it takes. but hey i've got to run. Love You, remember that if joseph smith really did see what he said. . . we need to share it with everyone. there is a great talk about it in one of the recent ensighns. . . or however you spell it.
Love Elder Bragg

When you're talking about it, you don't have to spell it. The Spirit straightens out conversations. Sometimes like your bike he gives us challenges to see how we would react to it. Looks like you passed that test as well. Love your spirit Colton.
