First day back from holiday and my chain snapped this morning at the top of Brixton Hill. Must be the huuuuge wattage I've been putting through it...
Walked/rolled down to Brixton Cycles sans power and left the bike in their capable hands. Am taking the opportunity get an iffy-looking brake cable seen to and get some new bars/mudguards fitted, so all was not lost.
Combo of bus/Boris bike into the City from there, which certainly could have been worse. Must have looked properly strange on my Boris bike with my Chrome SPD shoes...
