See how the lenses is bent in half!
Some car (probably mine) ran them over! The frames are still in tack so I'm getting a new nose piece and set of clear lenses.
The second Broken thing is my Bike. Thursday I went hill climbing. I found a huge hill in SW. Take SW Cardinell Dr up from Downtown to 16th. Take a left on 16th and keep going up. It climbs 600ft in 1.2 miles. Unfortunately all the torque from climbing the hill completely stripped out the pals on the inside of my free hub body. For you non-bikers that means when I peddled the back wheel wouldn't turn. Good thing it was all down hill from there to home and I was able to coast all the way.
Friday I ran around looking for a new free hub body to fit my Reynolds hub. I finally found one at Sellwood Cycle Repair. After work I dashed down there. But the axle size was different. They were awesome there and gave me a loaner wheel so that I could ride with Portland Velo this morning. Even though the wheel has about 100 spokes and no tension and looks like it was built in the late 80's :) They are getting the parts and fixing it for me. Hopefully I'll have it back for next weekend.
It wasn't 'some car' it was yours and yours alone!
