I Snapped My First Chain Today
I was at the light at the end of my street doing a trackstand and when I stomped on the pedals to move, the chain snapped and I came down on the bike hard. Ouch. I rolled back home. The chain had some miles on it and was just over a year old, but it was still in decent shape.
I spent Wednesday replacing the rotors and brake pads on the Escape so the brakes would be in tip-top shape or "virginal" in ABL's words.
ABL thinks this is a repeat of last year, when a crew member had to cancel because his house caught fire and my mom got breast cancer shortly before the race. I think it's a sign of my power and her driving habits ;)
