Thursday, May 28, 2009 Bike FAIL / Life FAIL  While riding through Long Island City on the way to work today, I swerved to avoid a car but got bumped and then crashed my bike. Unfortunately I fell onto the derailleur of my bike and it snapped off, leaving me with a fucked bike, some bruises, a still-bleeding elbow and an unfortunate $12 cab ride back to my apartment to clean up, drop off the bike, and head to work. I THINK right now that it might just need a derailleur hanger replaced, which will only run me $25 or so, but I've never had to replace anything like this and I was in too much of a hurry to spend much time inspecting the bike. I am tired and sore and not feeling psyched about the world.  Labels: biking, disappointment, fucktactics posted by Nihilist Loves Hate, Hates Everything at 5/28/2009 11:14:00 AM 2 comments |
GET BEHIND ME DEAD MAN
oh, no...
but didn't you see "Wild Hearts Can't Be Broken"??? just get back on there and ride again, you proud, determined young person.
Hey Beaumont, my bike men over here in France have some suggestions for your derailleur fix. Email Jefe if you are looking for advice. We all sympathize. Cars are stupid.
