Very nice ride today.  Thirty miles out and back on the oddly named 
Pleasant Valley Road.  It is indeed pleasant, just not a valley.  A full 
1600 feet of climbing before your done.  Anyway I was just about to start 
up the last couple of miles of steep uphill when I saw a rider standing on 
the other side of the road.  He said something snapped and then the bike 
got really hard to pedal.  A quick examination turned up a broken spoke and 
a 21 mm tire wedged against the  chain stay.  No space; vertical drop outs 
so no way to cheat a little.  I skipped the lecture as he appeared anxious 
enough already.  I asked him if he was headed to Cambridge ( 5-6 miles of 
downhill.)  Nope, his car was in Underhill, back up the hill he was going 
down.

Nothing I could do to help.

Michael
