I hate my bike
Right, so i was vacationing on a small island off Maine a few summers ago, and I decided to go for a ride on my (absolute crap) bike. Now there is something you should know about my bike. I found it for free on a street corner and it lacks shocks, breaks, and the ability to change off of the highest gear.
So, I was pedaling up this evil evil hill, it must have had an incline of at least 65 degrees and it was extreamly long. Anyhoo I am pedaling up this hill on my highest gear very slowly and as i am about to reach the top my chain pops off!
So i begin rocketing down the hill backwards at like 80mph without breaks and at the bottom of the hill there was a seawall. If i didnt stop in time i would go flying off a cliff and into the ocean backwards.
So i tryed to kindof, spin around to right myself so i woulnd die. Bad idea when you are going that fast. my bike lifted off the ground in a short bound, flipping me off and proceding down the hill. As i was thrown off the bike i was still going pretty fast. I hit the ground and bounced once or twice before stopping. I was in too much pain to get up at teh time so i just let myself slowly roll down the hill.
I didnt get any permanet injurys but my bike was pretty mangled when i found it. I never found that chain.
