Spring ride, part II
One of the reasons I like running is its simplicity. Not only are shoelaces the most complicated apparatus you have to adjust, but the most cleanup you have to do for your equipment is scrape off the dirt and chuck it in the clothes washer.
After riding for 77 minutes this morning, I spent half again that much time this afternoon removing crud from the bike, and cleaning, then oiling the chain. My saddle bag came unzipped during the ride, causing the inner tube to fall out somewhere between here and Chambéry. And I hit something somewhere that caused a small rip in the rear tire sidewall. Going to have to replace both the missing tube and the ripped tire before I ride again.
