RE: [RBW] I doubt this was a steel bike

Well, he only had a little way left to go...but I know how shaken up I would 
have been upon looking down and seeing only half a bike underneath me!

I dunno, call me a quitter but I would have packed it in rather than going 
crazy looking for any bike you can find to finish a voluntary ride.  Then again 
I think STRAVA is pretty silly too, but to each his own. He should keep a spare 
set of rollerblades to finish next time, haha.

[RBW] I doubt this was a steel bike

This guy works just a few blocks from my shop. I'll be curious to see if any 
details emerge, but it SOUNDS like a case of chain suck causing a rear triangle 
to break off (or vice versa). I'm guessing he wasn't on a Bombadil or LHT!
