achievement

I just changed a rear tire without using tire-irons, and without getting any dirt or grease anywhere except on my hands.

My coworkers tell me I should get a patch for my sash now.

Definitely patch-worthy- and if it can be of this character, from 'Les Triplettes,' so very much the better.
I just got re-shown how to safely remove a back tire. Every little baby step...

Aha! It's pretty clear what the patch should be. New LJ icon found and applied.

It _is_ tres perfect.
But just for fun and just to add to your **championness** via his Championness, here's our boy throwing in his cap for badge status. *g*
(and yeah, I nicked it from... you)

You could just smear a little bike-grease on your sash. ;-)

Talia could probably provide you with a patch. :-)

You clearly released your inner warrior Diva...or at least your inner "handy with tools" diva! Go you!

No tools! Just my bare hands. And a pump to put air in the tire afterwards.

Well then, your inner bare handedness! Well done!

Who needs tire irons with those thumbs?!

Also, a patch is what you apply to a flat tire. A *badge* is what you apply to a sash.

Hey, what happened to my patch icon? Re-applied -- don't you think the patch graphic would make a good badge graphic?

I agree :)

And I LOVE the icon.

It is AWESOMENESS as patch badge. Make it right and it could even be a patch waiting to get used as well as decorative badge of a patch!
(there's a tongue-twister in here somewhere, I just know it!)

You're right, that would make an awesome badge!

looks like you already HAVE the patch!
