Training Wrap Up!

During the taping of the last video clip I was about to hand-cycle towards the reporter and then out of all times the hand-cycle chain broke! After we all laughed about this unexpected chain break, we finished up the interview and then the bike was quickly fixed up by the great staff at Reckless Bike Store on Fir Street.
