Bummer. Pedals are overrated imo......or is it wives are overrated? < funny.looking.word

Either way post up a pic of the damage. Maybe someone can advise on a possible fix-it solution.

Get used to it. A bike only has value if you use it. When you use it, these things happen. Grin & bear it, and move on.

Don't stop there. Blame your mother-in-law for having her in the first place. If you're gonna step in it, might as well sink to your hips.
