The ride home was not as nice as the ride in. I felt great for the first 3 miles--then my right pedal bolt literally snapped in half. I was going about 15mph at the time and had just stood up to push a bit harder when I heard a loud POP and felt my butt hit the saddle. I miraculously did not crash and was able to stop pretty quickly and compose myself. I made it to the LBS 3 minutes before closing and had them swap out the junky spare pedal (which they just slapped on for free last week to tide me over) with a nice new one. Whew, it was a close call though...
