Things I broke this weekend......

....in no particular order.....

1: Brake Cable

[Old pic, but you get the idea]

Yep, mearly a couple of weeks after getting the brake repaired and it's broken again in exactly the same place.  Strangely, I don't recall snagging it on anything; nor had it been used much in the run up to this point.  Either I try and get the local bike shop to bodge something again, send it back to ABS (who kindly offered to sort it last time, which I didn't do as I was thinking about postal costs), or try and do something myself....hmmmm...

2: Axle Hanger


 [Bent noSno Axle Hanger]

Well, bent rather than broken, but it does look to be a bit more bent than it was a week ago and looks quite different to the rear hanger which is around about the 27 degree mark.  One to keep an eye on and replace if necessary.  Question is, do I go for the standard hanger or pro version....???

3: Big Toe


I would have loved to have done this in an extreme way.  Unfortunately, all I did was fall off a bouncy castle in an awkward way at the weekend.  Few more beers kept the pain at bay and it's alright at the moment when sat down.  Broken, or just very, very bruised, I'm not sure.   Hopefully a bit of TLC and it'll be fine.  Hopefully.....

Did you ever figure out if it was broken? If it was could you move it?
