ben neeeded a ride to ease some stress and i don't really need an excuse so off we went on a gloriously sunny day to look for some singletrack to cruise. Ben also played on the zip wire we found in the park and then got a puncture which took some fixing when the valve and pump wouldn't play ball, this was to set the scene for the ride, a little later Ben's left crank arm fell off!, not having the proper tool to tension the bearings properly we "magivered" it with a multitool and tightened it back on, something was amiss though as it kept coming loose for the rest of the ride. it was too nice to worry about it though and the whole ride was a giggle. Ben did txt me after we parted ways to say he'd had another puncture, hopefully all his bad luck has been used up in one ride.
