    Sorry about the broken spokes, never knew I rode hard enough to break spokes. :?:

    Am I really that hard on bikes? I don't do anything crazy on them, I don't do any 20 foot jumps or ride over huge boulders, I just ride it normally. Is it me, or do I just have bad luck?

    Thanks for letting me borrow your bike. I'll pick it up from your place and bring it back since I have a bike rack now.

    Hmmm... Maybe you should change your title to: FORUM SPOKEBREAKER ?

    1) Everyone is capable of breaking spokes
    2) You do ride hard enough to break spokes
    3) YES, you are hard on bikes
    4) No you don't ride normally- YOU RIDE FAST!
    5) Two OTB's in two weeks have a way of snapping spokes and bending rotors!!!
    6) It's not you! You don't have bad luck!
    7) When you ride hard- things break

    P.S.- I may not be able to attend tomorrow's ride. Family emergency....

    Lmbda Drive - too bad my bike is a small. Else I'd give it up for you to ride. I don't really care about my spokes. I want a new set of wheels anyway.

    Hope you find a bike to borrow.

    Pugzie you will be missed.
