First Chain Throw!
My ride this evening was eventful - my chain came off for the first time as I unwisely went from top to bottom cog without passing go.... daft eh? I put it back on though without panicking and rode around gingerly for a few minutes in first gear before continuing on.
This event seemed to make me more adventurous for some reason (!) and I went further than I have before - finishing up at the bridge under the Downs Link. It started to rain at this point, so I waited it out whilst texting Jan (who has just put her new bike together and had a ride this evening - congratulations!) and Ian (in case he was worried about how long I was taking).
I had a nice Twix and a drink as well. It was deeply quiet - I could hear pheasants that sounded like they were miles away, and could hear no cars. If it hadn't been damp, I would have crashed out on the grass and stayed there a lot longer.
