Good day - went out training again. 12.6 miles. Vanessa decided to cycle with me today and jsut as we were leaving my chain broke. I took a link out and we were ready to go. Thankfully I have a tool that allows you to remove a link and then close without the need for a special link. I always carry this tool with me so I now know if the worst comes to the worst on the road I am able to fix bike.
The sun was out, a slight wind but by the time we got back home it was very cold. The bike seems to be going well but I think I need to oil and grease it again - the wet weather plays hell with everything.
Good to have brakes that work well - first time I have been happy with the rear brake. 12 miles is about one fith of what I hope to cycle per day - not sure that thought sits comfortably with me at the moment.
Going out now.
Take care and stay safe.
