(8 months 3 weeks post op) well, i ate like crap the whole week. only ate a home cooked meal for dinner once this past week. the only thing that caused weight loss this week was the miles i put in.
broken pedal story: so saturday i ride 50 miles and decided i needed insulated water bottles. my three non insulated bottles, two of which started off as solid ice, were all melted after 90 minutes. so on sunday i head out for another 50 miler with 3 insulated bottles. i make it down ascension hill and hear a pop. didn't really make anything of it. then i get off my bike to walk it down to the trail. when i try to clip back in it doesn't work. that pop i heard was the spring breaking on the pedal. so i was planning on riding 50 miles and now i'm at the bottom of ascension hill with a broken pedal. what to do??? i rode back to the house, swapped out the pedal then headed back out to the trail. that was an extra 3.5 miles i wasn't plan on riding but hey, nothing can stop the determined.
the bad news is that crank brothers doesn't make quattro pedals anymore. so i'm hoping they can be rebuilt.
weight: 283.8 lbs
