Night is over, chain does not look too good and I do not have a 9 speed chain tool or links.
You crashed due to driving/riding a vehicle during your job thatyou were ordered to ride/drive?
Are you
sure your weren't injured? I'd be asking to be checked out under workmans compensation. On the job injury, and I'd make sure everything on my person was really, really checked out. I mean you might be too injured to work, especially riding that bike; and about that bike--ever heard of repetitive stress injuries?
Bikewer has some good Ideas too. . .
