Battle Scars 🤺 Today’s Featured Product! 💫 Coconut Ropamo Men’s Short-Sleeve Jersey New!! Cycling Exercise for Seniors For our full list of products, visit the SpokEasy Store! My new road bike is already accumulating battle scars! And it’s only two days old. This morning I was starting up; and put a little too much energy into it. The bike swerved; and I had to step down in a hurry. The bike fell onto its right side; and the shifter got pushed out of line. I had to go to the bike shop to get it fixed. This isn’t a brifter that I can push back into place; and I suspect that I’ll miss that. Cowering? 😧 I also suspect that I might spend considerable time cowering indoors for the next few days. The forecast is full of rain! I don’t want to be working to get the hang of a new bike when it’s pouring. Naturally I don’t want my shiny new “wheels” to get mucked up too fast; and it’s also a matter of safety. “Battle scars” doesn’t have to mean a serious crash! I’m debating whether to ride to the salvage store tomorrow. There might be rain by 9:00 am; but if it’s not heavy, a poncho might do. Saturday morning, however, there’s a greater chance of adverse weather. I’d rather avoid that!
