Broke some spokes
On Sunday’s ride, I heard something rattling in the back wheel. I examined the bike today and found I had broken 4 spokes. I probably ran over a branch and it got tangled up in the back wheel causing some spokes to break off at the nipple.
Thankfully, Ultimate Bicycle was able to fix it this afternoon and I was able to go for a ride today.
MTB: distance 13.34 miles, average speed 13.5 mph.
Charlotte, NC
Spent 10 years in Charlotte, a block away from an entrance to the McAlpine Creek Greenway.
Switched to a mountain bike from the road bikes I was accustomed to riding for 15 years.
The time spent on these trails was most appreciated.
