Today began in the early morning. I got up (because I couldn't sleep) at about 3 am, checked email and facebook (as you do), and went back to sleep. At 6.30 I woke and checked my watch. We needed to be at the airport by 6.45 which gave us 10 mins to make it happen. Fortunately the bike and all the extras were pretty much in place.
There is a dilema - do you plan for every eventuality (e.g. broken spokes) or go light and hope it all works ok. I have 2 spare spokes and 2 spare chain links if the chain breaks. I think I even know how to use them. The tools are quite heavy, so its a toss up. I also have lots of plastic ties which are great and weigh almost nothing.
We made it to the airport and the check-in was very painless. I am on my way.
