Couldn’t get this posted yesterday. The ride lasted longer than it should have.
Some days are full of challenges. I decided to jump out and get a quick 20 miles or so Thursday afternoon. My front derailleur stopped working … completely. I couldn’t get it to move at all. At least it was stuck in the big ring. I stopped at the bike shop near the end of the ride, and 40 minutes later (now pressed for time), it was determined that the shifter was defective. A new one is on order.
The ride was pretty good. I got a bit confused on the route, choosing a path that I had not planned. I love the hills on St. Margaret. They give me a pretty good challenge (especially in the big front ring).
