I was getting a couple of essential items today in that very well known supermarket, the one that's on the edge of world domination, when oh dear I had a bout of hardware failure. It was sort of my fault but I was leaning forward to get something and as a result of this was pressing down hard on my knees when my foot plate gave way! Like I said it was sort of my fault because Ive been fiddling about and changing the way its set up, and obviously I hadn't tightened the whole thing up hard enough. I'm used to a solid foot rest taking all my weight so this came as a bit of a surprise, and very awkward it was too. I couldn't lean forward enough to pull it back up so had to make my way slowly and gingerly out of the store and back to the car. I really really didn't want the whole thing scraping along the ground, but you know how you sometimes see a car slowly driving along with its exhaust hanging off? Well it was a bit like that. So I got back to the car, cursed quite a lot and decided Id have to head home to do some repairs as I don't routinely carry Allen keys and screwdrivers in my bag. Hmmm perhaps I should eh?

ReplyDeleteI do. The one time I succumbed to my husband's entreaties and checked my allen keys in my luggage, my footrest fell right out in the airport! Thank goodness for the Sacramento Bicycle Police, who came to my rescue.
