Yeah man, thanks for asking.
Didn't go down or anything, really strange. I think i lost a chainring bolt or two at some point which gave the big ring some play. Then, when i punched it to get on to River Road, the thing just gave way, destroying the front derailleur at the same time. Luckily, i was only a mile or two from home at that point, so Amy came and got me. Lame though.

amy thinks i should be commuting on a mountain bike. i don't like to disagree with her when her advice is in line with buying a new bike. maybe something used from ebay, nothing fancy, just durable.

i know i won't have the rotor cranks. :)
