Did anyone save the info on the 1 Nov retro ride in the DC area? If so, could you either repost it or forward it to me? Any CR members going to turn out?
Early on my morning ride, I became aware of a metallic, clanking noise on the bike. Oh no! I immediately started trying to isolate the imminent catastrophic equipment failure. Somwere in the middle front, and low on the bike. Oh, why hadn't I checked for frame cracks, overhauled the BB, tightened chainring bolts, torqued crank arms, snugged stem nuts and/or saddle bits? Visions of walking home arose, as I didn't have the cell phone with me, and I doubted I could fix whatever this was with the few tools I had. I was being punished, no doubt, for greed, sloth lust, envy and and not training sufficiently this year.
Then, as the sweat popped out on my brow, I unzipped my windbreaker and the keys I had put in my jacket pocket stopped clanking against my thigh. :-}
