7°C, light SSW, no rain but feeling damp + milky sun.

Mustang, I’ve lowered the seat a bit to compensate for the effect of thicker clothes. Like on Tuesday, I stopped briefly to make further adjustments. I’ve been getting irritated with  jumping gears in the lower end. after  changing the cassette and chain, I expect better. As it was, I couldn’t trust  getting out of the seat for a surge. In the last 3km, I changed up for a final blast and the rear gear cable broke  at the levers end. That broken cable explains the bad gear shifts.

In response, I replaced the cable immediately on getting home. While at it, I may as well change the front cable too before the sun goes down. Not only.gas the nipple broken off, but the cable is frayed midway along.

How long is it since these were last change.

Mid-winter in terms of temperature, so on average, it’s going to get warmer.
