Belgian biker Posted February 20, 2017 Posted February 20, 2017 Did some riding Saturday in Bouillon, Belgium. Roped in an old Hero 2 to get some footage and threw together a quick edit. Bienvenue en Belgique, welkom in België, wilkommen in Belgien! Odinson 1
nox1111 Posted February 20, 2017 Posted February 20, 2017 Edit: Brand spanking new SRAM GX crankset. That's the thing. It wasn't that hectic. Tapped a root and got a bit bucked and when I started pedalling again I could feel the pedal twisting / oscillating under-foot. I initially thought I bent the pedal spindle or something. When I got home I checked the pedal and it's 100%. Put the left Saint pedal from my wife's bike on and the same story. It almost seems as if the pedal hole in the crank arm is bent, as the pedals don't thread in or out as easily as they should.flip, I've done that once previously on a forged, non-hollowtech crankset, and also happened easier than expected, bike falling over on cement! No idea why, but that sucks big time! Maybe they'll replace it since it is new - even better if you accidentally caught the strike on gopro. Odinson 1

Mntboy Posted February 20, 2017 Posted February 20, 2017 Does train stations count? Went for a early afternoon training ride and was having a pretty lekker ride until I got to Simons Town's magistrate's court where I heard the dreaded wobble noise of a deflating back tyre. I have been riding without my saddle bag which contains my spares and without my bike pump! Yes yes very clever of me I know. So I had to walk down to the train station to be able to get to Muizenberg station. From there I would have to rather obviously walk home. The saving grace is that because my bike has flats and not cleats I didn't have to duck walk all the way home! Anyways herewith pictorial evidence of my disgrace!
