Well.. I went for a ride. Got down the road a bit and realised the tyres needed pumping. I rode back and pumped them up with the hand pump then went out again. Got about a kilometre down the road when my brand new chain broke!! I was about 500m further than the last time it broke.
Perhaps it’s the law of Karma telling me I shouldn’t be riding bikes.
Perhaps it’s the law of Physics telling me "LOSE 30KGS BEFORE RIDING COS YOU ARE TOO FAT!!".
Either one works for me.
I will have to take the bike back to the shop and see if they have any stronger chains. Perhaps my last one bought at KMart was just a ‘cheap and nasty’.
