Funky Fungus |
I'm leaving The Regency Hotel at 10 am, hoping to make it to the next bike store to get my bike problem solved.

No speeding |
The distance to Horley, location of Gatwick Airport and location of a bike store is 4.6 Miles. Both batteries are fully charged and if I ride that distance with full battery assist ("TURBO" they call it ;-), I should be able to almost exclusively use my right leg to pedal, avoiding putting a load on that already wobbly left crank.

The dreaded moment has arrived |

No pedaling today ;-( |
At least so was the thinking. But what luck: The crank avec pedal finally falls off without further ado on a bridge over railway tracks. I am able to coast down the road off the bridge and have to hit the brakes when I realize I was about to pass the bike shop ;-) The shop owner seems to know exactly what to do about the crank. But my suspicion was correct: No store called on a Saturday has that part in stock as a is quickly revealed.
