 Work
Today I left hoping not to get rained on coming in. I was less than half a mile from home when I ran into rain. I stopped and thought about turning home, but it was liht and I decided to go on and see how it was. I had gone by Sarah Collins and was running about 35 mph down the hill when I heard a loud crack. The bike felt okay so I kept going. About 3/4 mile later I heard something fall off the bike. I rode on in to work and it seemed fine. I went out later to look at it and a rear spoke was broken and the rear wheel reflector was gone. When I rolled it to the car the rear wheel was badly warped and dragging on the brakes. Cis picked me up at work and we left it at TTR.
