Sounds fun Archaea. I'm learning so many things about the world of the triathlete that I had no idea existed. I have a hard enough time training my legs and lungs, I had no idea I was supposed to be training my bowels as well.
Did you get the bike fixed? Hopefully an easy repair? Cable tension or worn cog I'm guessing.
You guys are both so far out of the rest of our league its not even funny.
