Fucking fuckity fuck chain slipped off the fucking cassette, jammed into the hub, breaking two spokes in the process (only discovered after as was 10 miles from home) and couldn't unclip as I locked up on a climb. Pitched over into a ditch which blew the wind out plus cuts, stinging nettles and a bent rd. Had to wrench the wheel out to free the chain and bend the mech back so hands covered in oil mixed with blood from arm and fingers. Fucking hate cycling.
