Now if I could just fall asleep for more than an hour at a time…
Anyhoo. My last ride was 3 weeks ago, as I’ve been out of town the last two weekends.
Travel time: 1:51:42
Total distance: 23.77mi
Average speed: 12.8mph
Max Speed: 31.3mph
I don’t remember most of the ride (since it’s been so long) except that I broke a spoke on my rear wheel while I was on the trail. The rear wheel wasn’t too terribly off true, but I don’t own the tools to take off my rear cassette. I made some minor adjustments to keep it from rubbing and called Glenview Cycle to check the hours and potential cost of the repair. I liked it, and I’ve been doing all my cycle business there lately, so I set out. Long story shorter, the repair man fixed my spoke and informed me that the spokes on that wheel were pretty tight. He advised that if it happens again this season I should replace the wheel now, but if not, do it at least before next season. I agreed, since it was the 3rd spoke to break on that wheel this year.
This past weekend I ventured up to Northern WI
