Suck.
So, Mr. Nihilator, would you be willing to impart to us a short treatise on this particular chain?

Clearly, the chain is made out of glass.
The state of the art one or the sram chain, your choice.
Once back to the car, I fixed the chain since I had forgotten to put any loose pieces of chain in my pack. Which meant, walking the bike up hills, scootering it along flat sections and for gaining momentum heading towards descents. Yes, I still rode the downhills on the way back to the trail head.
7th time I snapped this sram chain.

Pardon my ignorance but shouldn't a chain go in the trash after breaking the very first time? Let alone 7?

"park closes at 6:00pm" ?? WTF ??
That sucks way worse than your chain woes.
Holy party-poopers. You must live in Utah or something.

Yeah that's my only complaint about the place is the closing time, the closing time changes as the sunset does. BTW, NJ
