Aaron's Bicycle Repair
-Every over priced Nashbar item comes with free uncomfortable touching (by Aaron)
-All wheel truings now include excessive butt grabbing (by Aaron)
-All clearance Performance parts might be doubled in price when you buy them from Aaron's Bicycle Repair but hey, who doesn't mind paying double for something from your favorite LBS?
-Want some top quality lights? Aaron has them in stock! Don't even try to buy them from another shop or else Aaron will call the distributor personally and complain like a baby.
-Christmas specials: Shopping for your wife or girlfriend? Bring her into Aaron's Bicycle Repair, leave her while you shop for over-priced fenders and Aaron will try to set up a swinging wife swap date right in front of his young brat boy.
-Find out the scoop on all the local bicycle clubs from Aaron himself. He's been thrown out of all of them.

Is this fresh new hate from some incident? Or is this just plain old recycled hate that has someone posting daily to CL? Passive aggressive persistence.

As I would have to cross the Doomland of the West Seattle Bridge to use Aaron's services, I don't. That said, I drank gin with the man, shot the shit, hung out and warmed my frozen butt and hands in his shop, and very much enjoyed it. There was no groping, that I saw.

i can think of a couple people who quit riding with point83 because of how uncomfortable arron made them.
I am Aaron and if you keep posting these things about my bike shop I will track you down and punch you in the nose.
I have never sexually harassed any women. I have only been with women who have given me the "Green light".
And If you try to buy stuff from a wholesaler instead of a bike shop again, I'll bust you again. Get over it!
oh man, too funny to be real, I wish talkback on the PI was this funny though

i don't think that reply was aaron, since it doesn't threaten to sue anyone.

Oh for fuck's sake. It's this kind bandwagoning that makes me reluctant to ride with .83 these days.
Everybody have your BAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWW and get it out of your systems.

Aaron keeps fucking himself, he has no one blame but himself.

I have no stake at all in Aaron's standing with Point83. I'm not defending him.
I just get tired of the "yeah, fuck Aaron!" (or whomever) threads that get so large and vitriolic. I'm talking about HIVEMIND here, not Aaron.

I'm with you. If people have their own beef with the guy, deal with it privately. Don't assume the entire group shares your opinion, or even if they do, want to have it represent us on teh intranets.
Of course, Aaron is a special case. No other person has singlehandedly convinced through their actions more people to NOT ride with us. Not even John or Derrick and his many Ex's.
I miss the 20% discount though, it brought ABR in line with the other shops in town, even though they carry better stuff and have some of the best mechanics in town. Thanks for that, Joby/Henry/Assholes et al.

Don't blame Joby/Henry/Assholes, they had nothing to do with that. It was Aaron's decision to cut off the discount.
