^^ I resemble that remark.
It rained hard on Thursday's commute home, soaking my bike. Friday morning the temperature had dropped below freezing and as I rode to work, I pulled on the rear brake and the brake cable froze as I held the brake. Stupid noodle. I was unable to break it free. As I was closer to work than home, I broke the 2mph barrier trying to ride my bike the rest of the way to work with the rear brake solidly engaged. I got strange looks from pedestrians.
