Damn slippy wet london!

My brake failed this morning! Coming down Caledonian road, I pulled on the brakes and felt the front one go, as if the cable had snapped. After a pretty hairy few seconds trying to come to a stop with just the back, I have a closer look. The anchor bolt is completely loose; no thread left to screw into the brake arm.
Bugger. Had to walk from Kings Cross, too wet to rely on my back brake. Now I'm really fucking wet and pissed off.

Mine too! I broke two bikes coming to work today!

Snapped the Cuntsters brake cable and rode it home, swapped for the Ribble and then broke a spoke on it (weak from when the derailler went into wheel).

What a fucking shambles!! Didn't get in until 11am.. so much for my 10am meeting..

Cycle Surgery don't have any of the spokes I need in stock either so I have to ride it fucked or leave it here or something.. grrr
