      Well aware of what might have been. My fault. I put that chain on. Not sure what I did wrong.

          Darn master link clip thief strikes again. Maybe a disgruntled co worker?

          Say, is that tire cracking? Probably just the light but it looks kinda old.

            That tire is a 4 year long soap opera. Waaay too long of a story I want to tell again.

                    I’m in the habit if putting safety wire on the clip to deter the thieves.

                          BIA (back in action). I had an extra clip ? Or did I put the old clip on the new chain ?

                            How does one safety wire a master link clip?

                            A guy i rode with a few times lost his master link, then chain...... in the Holland Tunnel (tunnel from NJ into NYC - almost always a traffuc choked mess). Hevsaidvafter that he always carried a spare master link. As do I after hearing the tale.

                              Hey grandpa, time to ditch the old clip style master link and go with the rivet type. Much more reliable. 👍
