Subject: Totally pi$$ed Off!!!!! So I road to work this morning about 30km in -5c, not that that is the issue, actually it was quite pleasant. My incident happened 10km in of a 30km ride. I felt like the cassette was slipping, I ride a screw on, when I accelerated. Sure enough, I discovered teh cassette was shot. So I kept riding and met up with a fellow cyclist. We started chatting and sharing stories, when I decided to get out of the saddle to pick up the pace a little. The cassette slipped and I smashed my left knee into the handlebars. So after many expletives, I rode on to work the remaining 15km. So I was nursing a busted bike and a busted knee.
The part that pi$$es me off is that I have just recovered from a rolled ankle that occurred back in March and I had planned a return to full training now that I have some stability back. So it looks like I'm on the couch again. having an xray in an hour to see if there is any major damage to the knee cap.
Oh well looks like I can stay fat a little longer. |
