Wed group ride

started out the day with a nice deep tissue massage. glutes had a kink from all the mountain running and hiking this past weekend. While I do not like waiting all day to work out. I do like the group rides. So since last week we did a sprint tri today we were going to do the "fast" group ride. Everything started out great. Doing my first "b" ride, going out pretty well....it started raining really bad, my glasses fogged up and lightning popping everywhere, made it up first hill and then starting to cruise down the hill and i hear someone yell "her axles off"...I was curious bc my bike was fine but there was only one other female and she was one of my best friends. Well my friends crank came off after taking it to Higher Ground for a tune up. Well with it being wet none of us had brakes that worked well and now she was "clipped in" to her crank that was no longer connected to her bike. Needless to say we regrouped, couldnt find the piece so she and i told the group to go ahead on and we walked 4 miles back to the cars. weirdest scariest thing ever. so no training ride tonight...just soaking wet and good walk pushing our bikes back. but most important no one got injured. super scary!!
