Was a twisted link that snapped it.

Today I replaced the bottom bracket on the Surly. External shimano the bb that came with the 105 cranks was so shot that the crank rocked back and forth, which likely explained the clicking. Hadn't had to remove the wheel until today when I got rid of the dingle setup, wound up deciding on 46x18 for the gearing. Oh and 30 miles.
