This morning while I was riding, my pedal broke! Luckily I was going up-hill and not too quick either. The pedal sheared off, I manged to control the bike with only a bruise to my thigh which hit the handle bars. In my years of riding I have not seen a pedal break like this, let alone expensive Look Carbon pedals, so guess what the cycling shop where I bought them is going to get a call.
Managed a nice 45km ride this morning with my training partner Nick, tomorrow is a spinning class at Virgin Active.
Today was also the protest ride organised by CycleSafe here in Durban, on Sunday my friend Anne Schooling and 3 other riders were hit buy a car on the R102 outside Durban, the driver of the car fled and left Anne critically injured, she requires surgery to ascertain the extent of the injuries to her spine, I hope she recovers quickly.

Maybe the pedal broke because of your FA? :-)
I fell off my bike on Sunday, too. Was going uphill when I put my wheel off the tar and into an erosion rut. I was quite proud of my dismount which would have put Nadia Comaneci to shame.
