One of the hazzards of a park in the middle of the city is that some parts of it are on top of old construction left over dumps, or park used city rejected fill to "fix" the trails at some point in the past...
We are all used to seeing non-native rock and chunks of concrete on the trails, but on my last ride I picked up something else. I stopped when I heard a loud slapping on the frame. Turned out I had a 3-4" rusted bent nail in my rear tire. I went thru the tread and out of the side wall!
What a bummer.
Other than that, it's too wet again to go out on the trails... Withdrawal...
About Me
- Dmitri
- For the last 8 or so years I've been occasionally riding my bike. Last year I tried, and liked, endurance racing, which resulted in my first hundie this year. And I think I'm hooked. Thus this blog to track my progress to competing in more 100-milers next year...
