My ride a few days ago .. brand new trail, loamy and slabby. Name: Body Dump
it was a dumb fun ride, until the precambrian shield dealt a death blow to my derrailleur- actually the hanger, thankfully.
No time to McGyver a singlespeed setup due to a billion, billion black flies.. I’m thinking they’ve mutated such that DEET is gravy to their taste ..
Anyways, simple solution, run-a-bike back to my car. Works every time!
Typical scene. Slab, loam, slab
Loamy switchback..
Bike broke good!
Its just a flesh wound! Impaled by a pedal pin..
