I decided to do some work on the right shifter for my road bike last night and ended up getting in real deep. Little springs everywhere and now its totally f**k'd.

I couldn't get it back together. So I rode the MTB bike that I have only rode once all year in this morning. Chromo cranks, flats, riser bars, big fat tires and five inch travel fork. No complaints. It felt good to bust it out this morning. I had a good ride.
