Had a great ride with a small group of guys, and just before we got to Medina, Timothy Murphy and I were descending a very steep section of highway with several sharp corners. According to Tim, he “overcooked one,“ but with his disc brakes was able to slow down in time and stay upright. I wasn’t able to, and rather than hit Tim, I basically hit the deck. My right shifter by the brake lever became dysfunctional, but I was still able to shift the bike manually by pushing the buttons on the derailleurs themselves. I’m very thankful to Michael Matt for hanging back with me, and helping me decide which gear to put my bike in as I had to ride it as a single speed for the rest of the ride. As always, though, I am most thankful to my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, for keeping me safe, and allowing me to return to this sport which I love, and for another safe ride.?
