The Pella @Walmart is being remodeled, which means everything is constantly being moved around. I love pretending I’m Christopher Columbus as I stumble into the pet supply area and discover Oreos and laundry detergent. #bravenewworld #firstworldproblems

@jeremy_engbers Miss you, Nanners. 😉

If your son drives a white Dodge Stratus in Pella, it may be time to remind him of the importance of sharing the road and not pulling alongside cyclists and pedestrians and swearing at them for being outside. He seems to be a bit ignorant of traffic laws. Knowledge is power 🤷‍♂️😳

Today @UnitedAirlines tells me “Unfortunately, we do not cover Bicycle.” 😳 I’ve now asked who accepts service of lawsuits for United, so get your popcorn. I ❤️ making corporations pay for screwing over consumers.

Story time: I flew to Las Vegas for a bike race. Before flying, I reviewed @UnitedAirlines Contract of Carriage to ensure they could ship my bike. It said it had to be packed a certain way or they would have no liability. So I packed it as they demanded, they charged me $ and …

[Wes Chaplin @WesChaplin]

After talking to 5 people in @UnitedAirlines baggage dept, taking the bike/case to the airport, and filing a claim, United says “Our Contract of Carriage excludes liability for bikes.” Multiple emails back and forth, arguing the rules of contract interpretation…

Update: we’re now 5 hours after I was told a @united supervisor would call me to discuss their destruction of my @TrekBikes Madone SLR9 gen 7. Great customer service, United Airlines.💩😳

[Wes Chaplin @WesChaplin]

Flew @united last weekend home from a bike race in Vegas. @united cracked/destroyed my carbon bike frame. I’ve now called 2x, took the bike/case to the airport at their request, and am on hour 3 of waiting for a call from a ‘supervisor’ “within 1-2 hours.” Never fly @united
