Sorry for not responding earlier - I was out of town for a few days. Thanks for the input. I'll check the chain and make sure the cable is lubed.

I had this problem when I rode both unloaded and loaded on my tour. When I was in granny gear, the gears would jump off the cog,leaving me with the possibility of a broken chain.
Turns out it was both crappy cables (got them replaced) and a bent derailler (had to buy a new one)--there were no problems after that, so good luck!

grease the chain not the cable. And be sure to wipe of excess lubrication.
