Unfortunately I didn't make it out for my lunchtime walk :-( I have been far to busy...
I have decided to stay of the bike tonight and tomorrow, to save myself for Saturday....
Thankfully the forecast for Saturday isn't looking to bad...

I ordered the chain wear tool as recommended by Rafe....so no more forgetting to measure the chain....I have also ordered a second chain, I will get the third next month.....I am determined to make the cassette last the year!!!!

I was replacing my chain on the single speed everytime it stretched by 1%. The chains are relatively cheap at about £10 but I was getting through a chain a month.
I've now decided to go for the "run it into the ground" option ans see if thats any better.
Well I am gonna go with plan A, 3 chains and rotate them every 1000 miles...keep it all for the year then renew...
Unless something looks seriously fecked in the meantime!
The chain checking tool is as much for curiosity as anything else :-)
