Hmm, I was wondering how today's ride went. Something tells me there was a story there. Maybe two or three.
The story is that Sonoma Mountain Road HATES my bike. Last Saturday my chain broke 1/4 way up. Yesterday, the sound that started coming from the freehub on descents was absolutely terrifying. It took some sleuthing to figure out what it was. Observant Thom noticed the chain got very slack at the top, and the sound was like the worst brake rub you have heard - when the brakes were not being used.
It was very disconcerting, made me creep down the hills, and cut the ride short. But you know, it was a super fun day and it was probably good to do just the part of the ride before my legs started hurting. Because they would have hurt on Trinity.
We'll do this ride again some time. I don't think it's going to be that bad.
See MP your poor bike was trying to tell you it was tired after Saturday and wantd a rest.:DQuote:
