On the singlespeed. Took a while to get started, had some mechanicals, Raphael had to abandon ride due to broken rear qr skewer. Did one 17 minute interval coming up Purdon Road. My singlespeed chain was thrashed, one link was missing a side and three links had no rollers. Amazing that with the pressure I was putting on the drivetrain during my interval that the chain stayed in one piece. The South Yuba trail was covered in hikers. It's weird riding this trail during the day on the weekend, i'm used to not seeing anyone there. Accompanied by Supergirl.
