Busted Pedal
 

I was doing a difficult left handed turn through traffic today at the main intersection in town, and as I was stopping to wait for a speeding car, my drive side pedal busted! The platform snapped on the outside pivot, leaving my toe clip as the only thing holding my foot to my crank. In the middle of lunchtime traffic, the only thing I could do was tighten the strap as tight as it would go and limp into my next stop. Not only was I fighting tough traffic, I was doing so with a broken pedal! What a day...

What kind of pedals were you using?

Really old Schwinn Sprint pedals. I am actually surprised they made it this far.
